Abstract
Taphonomy, as a branch of learning and a research area, has undergone a tremendous growth in the past
few decades. It has extended its application from palaeontology to other disciplines, it has broadened its
referential scope and has incorporated humans as taphonomic agents. This has affected the way
taphonomy is perceived by its practitioners and requires a modification of its definition, following a
process that is common in most evolving natural science disciplines.
