This is the Endnote reference library to accompany the British Isles Archaeological Bird Database.

The Access database and its accompanying Endnote reference library were compiled by Rob Carthy, funded by a grant from the Leverhulme Foundation, to facilitate the writing of The History of British Birds, published by Oxford University Press in Nov 2008. It is an attempt to compile as complete as possible a list of archaeological sites in the British Isles (Ireland, Channel Isles, Man and Great Britain) which contain bird bones. The book attempts to digest the information, includes an annotated appendix of the record for each species, and includes caveats about the certainty (or not!) of the identifications. Perhaps the book should be taken as a set of hypotheses for further research - these records should be checked and their significance researched further. One thing that the book does not include is a complete list of all the sites and records which were summarised to produce it. This was deliberate, and predicated on the assumption that the database would indeed be made freely available to all interested parties. This is a fulfillment of that intention. I would be interested to receive information about further sites and further bird records.
