Abstract
The ascription of animal bones was revised and corrected. Brown bear, lynx, aurochs, bison (<i>bonasus</i>), red deer and roebuck indicate an environment of open woods (12,000 BC, pre-Bölling period). Remains of a <i>canis</i>, formerly ascribed to a wolf, showed clear signs of domestication <i>(C. familiaris)</i>, the first house-dog reported so far in the literature. Domestication had probably been an independent process using native wolf populations at different geographic centers all over the world. For human skeletons from the same site see <i>AATA</i><b> 24-</b>. -- AATA
