[Bonetools] piece od advice needed - thanx

[Selena Vitezović]

Dear colleagues,

I have one not-really-bone tool question. Recently a huge oak,
approximately 600 years old, was cut down in western Serbia, because it was
an obstacle for highway construction. The public opposed, of course, in
vain, of course, but that is not the issue here. Since the oak was approx,
600 years old, me and some of my colleagues thought perhaps samples can be
taken for dendrochronology comparisions. We do not have dendrochronology
lab or anything of a kind here (in SE Europe wooden stuff are very very
rarely preserved in archaeological record), so I need piece of advice - is
worth a trouble asking for samples? Who and how to take them? And probably
most important - if we take samples, then what?
I sound to myself like a complete amateur. Please help.

thank you, yours sincerly, Selena
