Abstract

A count of 6235 Chondrichthyes vertebrae was recovered from the 17th to 18th century AD NRD site (R11/859) on the Manukau Harbour, Auckland, New Zealand. These have been identified by aDNA analysis as mostly rig (Mustelus lenticulatus). To provide context for this unusual assemblage we briefly review the archaeological record of Chondrichthyes fishing in Oceania and New Zealand, and more extensively review the 19th and early 20th century ethnography of Māori shark fishing in New Zealand along with the archaeological record. Chondrichthyes were of economic, social and spiritual importance to pre-European Māori. A variety of species were caught by a variety of techniques, including mass harvest, and could be dried for storage. Our initial reading of the ethnographic record led us to expect that the assemblage would be dominated by school shark (Galeorhinus galeus), but a closer analysis of the record showed that Māori sharking practice was diverse. The NRD assemblage encapsulates this variation.

一种非常芳香的可食用食物:前欧洲Māori新西兰的软骨鱼(软骨鱼科)
在新西兰奥克兰Manukau港的17至18世纪NRD遗址(R11/859)中发现了6235块软骨鱼椎骨。通过aDNA分析,这些植物大多为rig (Mustelus lenticulatus)。为了提供这种不寻常的组合的背景,我们简要回顾了大洋洲和新西兰捕捞软骨鱼的考古记录,并更广泛地回顾了19世纪和20世纪初新西兰Māori鲨鱼捕捞的人种志以及考古记录。软骨鱼在经济、社会和精神上对前欧洲人都很重要Māori。各种各样的物种通过各种技术捕获,包括大规模收获,并且可以干燥储存。我们对人种学记录的初步阅读使我们预计鱼群将以校鲨(Galeorhinus galeus)为主,但对记录的进一步分析表明Māori鲨鱼的行为是多种多样的。NRD集合封装了这种变体。
