Sažetak
This contribution explores modes of human- animal interactions in hunter-gatherer communities in near-contemporary eastern Siberia and the Mesolithic of northwest Europe. By discussing notions of care and control, and drawing on syntheses of Russian-language ethnographic data from eastern Siberia, this paper explores the diversity and nuances of hunter-gatherers’ interactions with animals. While some contexts may reveal respectful yet diverse treatments of the hunted animals others suggest that hunter-gatherers also might have interacted with animals kept as pets, captives or companions thus implicating relations in which notions of care and control seem to be tightly bound.
