The present communication proposes the preliminary results of the revision of the old osteological collection from Etampes (Northern France) stored in the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. Fossil reindeer remains from Etampes (Northern France) were reported and figured by Guettard in 1768 for the first time. Later, some of the reindeer antlers from Guettard’s collection were figured by Cuvier (1808), who noticed that the cervid remains from Etampes belong to a quite small-sized reindeer and some of the antlers certainly belong to young individuals. Desmarest (1820) described the reindeer from Etampes as a new species Cervus guettardi, which today often is regarded as a fossil subspecies of reindeer Rangifer tarandus guettardi (Desmarest) with exceptionally thin antlers. The geological age of the fossil material from Etampes remains unclear. Bouchud (1967) supposed that the age of the material from Etampes should not be younger than the final Paleolithic. The revision of the part of Guettard’s collection preserved in the National Museum of Natural History in Paris revealed the presence of tool marks on some of the antler remains (not figured by Cuvier, 1808, 1823), which are supposed to come from Etampes. The tool marks suggest that at least a part of antlers belonging to Guettard’s collection come from a Paleolithic archaeological site. Most of the antlers from the collection are shed and juvenile. They represent a compact size group that corresponds to the size class of spears and darts from the Late Paleolithic site of Cosăuți (Moldova). Therefore, the available data allow concluding that the antlers of „Cervus guettardi” is a sample of shed antlers of juvenile reindeer collected by prehistoric humans. Lydekker (1886) regarded Cervus guettardi Desmarest as a junior synonym of Rangifer tarandus L. and this viewpoint is supported in the present paper, since the sample of reindeer antlers from Etampes, apparently, represents the humanly selected specimens with clear tool marks. |
