Excavations at three urban sites, Harlaa, Harar, and Ganda Harla, in eastern Ethiopia have recovered substantial assemblages of faunal remains. These, the first to be analysed from Islamic contexts in the country, were studied to reconstruct animal economies, and to assess if it was possible to identify Islamic conversion or the presence of Muslims in archaeological contexts through examining butchery practices and diet via the species present. Differences in animal economies between the sites in, for example, management strategies, use of animals for traction, and presence of imported marine fish, infers the development of different traditions. However, conversion to Islam was evident, and although issues of non-observance, mixed communities, and dietary eclecticism have to be acknowledged, the appearance of a similar range of butchery techniques suggests these were linked with the appearance of Muslim traders, and subsequent spread of Islam.

埃塞俄比亚东部的动物经济和伊斯兰皈依:来自 Harlaa、Harar 和 Ganda Harla 的动物考古分析

在埃塞俄比亚东部的三个城市遗址 Harlaa、Harar 和 Ganda Harla 的发掘中发现了大量的动物群遗骸。这些是第一个从该国伊斯兰背景进行分析的研究,以重建动物经济,并评估是否有可能通过检查屠宰做法和通过现有物种的饮食来确定考古背景中的伊斯兰教皈依或穆斯林的存在. 不同地点之间动物经济的差异,例如管理策略、牵引动物的使用以及进口海鱼的存在,可以推断出不同传统的发展。然而,皈依伊斯兰教是显而易见的,尽管必须承认不遵守、混合社区和饮食折衷主义的问题,
