Tiivistelmä

With the advent of ancient DNA, as well as other methods such as isotope
analysis, destructive sampling of archaeofaunal remains has increased
much faster than the effort to collect and curate them. While there has
been considerable discussion regarding the ethics of destructive
sampling and analysis of human remains, this dialogue has not extended
to archaeofaunal material. Here we address this gap and discuss the
ethical challenges surrounding destructive sampling of materials from
archaeofaunal collections. We suggest ways of mitigating the negative
aspects of destructive sampling and present step-by-step guidelines
aimed at relevant stakeholders, including scientists, holding
institutions and scientific journals. Our suggestions are in most cases
easily implemented without significant increases in project costs, but
with clear long-term benefits in the preservation and use of
zooarchaeological material.
