This special issue is the culmination of the III Microvertebrate Working Group (MVWG) meeting that was held virtually between September 1st and 2nd 2020 at the Institut de Paleoecologia Humana i Evolució Social (IPHES), Tarragona, Spain. The meeting gathered 50 small vertebrate zooarchaeologists virtually from Algeria, Argentina, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, the Philippines, Scotland, Serbia, Spain, Switzerland, and Tunisia.
