Aon. The pre-Hispanic dog of the Antilles is an excellent analysis, retrospective and at the same time updated of the available information about the coexistence of the so-called "mute dog" with the aboriginal populations of the Antilles; it is an archaeological study carried out from a regional perspective and an exhaustive bibliographic review. This endeavor marks the starting point for a new approach in the understanding of the man-dog relationship in the pre-Columbian Antilles. Its authors -Racso Fernández Ortega (Havana, 1957-), José Benito González Tendero (Havana 1966-), Divaldo Gutiérrez Calvache (Havana 1964-), and Juan Cuza Huart (Havana, 1928-2007)- have been extremely meticulous and have faced the analysis of the work of archeologists and scholars of the Caribbean geographic area, and of other latitudes, with the interest and scientific rigor required for these purposes, which results in an important source of critical information that enriches the polemic. Remarkable for archaeologists, zooarchaeologists and other specialists is his contribution in the clarification of some nebulae that subsist in this matter.
