Explore the exhibition catalog for “Dogs and Cats in Prehistory and Antiquity, ” dedicated to the two domestic animals that have accompanied humans for millennia.

As the first animal to be domesticated, the dog fulfilled many roles in prehistoric and ancient societies. The cat, which appeared later in history, gradually established itself as a daily companion while retaining a special place in certain civilizations.

Richly illustrated, this catalog is intended for enthusiasts of archaeology and history, as well as animal lovers who want to learn about the role animals played in ancient societies.
