Abstract
⺠Teeth from domestic animals at Neolithic settlement sites in Falbygden, Sweden were analysed for 87Sr/86Sr. ⺠Cattle and sheep were highly mobile but pigs were mostly local. ⺠The mobility of cattle is much higher than that of humans. ⺠West Sweden in the Neolithic was a regional economy, where basic components of subsistence were circulated. ⺠Probably, cattle also had a particular place in the Neolithic symbolic system.
