Abstract

Summary Analysis of faunal remains from the Manekweni Zimbabwe in southern Mozambique indicates that the animal economy of the site's inhabitants was dominated by cattle-keeping. Cattle remains were particularly associated with the central enclosure: in peripheral areas of the site small stock and wild animals were more frequently represented. Discussion is presented of the implications of these discoveries both for the sociopolitical organization of the settlement and for the exploitation pattern of the Manekweni region.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
