<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Lena, <br>I know I'm a bit late on this, but you may want to take a look at some of my thesis on modified bone. I'm not sure how much would have bearing on your project as my study focused on prehistoric Florida collections only. You may find some of the experimental work of use, though. I have not published the article yet, so the thesis is the one to cite. It is available online at <a href="http://diginole.lib.fsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3259&context=etd">http://diginole.lib.fsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3259&context=etd</a><br>
<br></div>Best of luck with your project. Sounds interesting!<br></div>Julie<br><div><div><br><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 16, 2014 at 3:45 AM, Lena Strid <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:lena.strid@oxfordarch.co.uk" target="_blank">lena.strid@oxfordarch.co.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

> I have a very large Roman deposit of chopped up long bones from making bone pins. The bones are mostly cattle and horse metapodials, radius and tibia. The deposit is sampled entirely, sieved down to 4mm, and contains everything from large proximal and distal ends down to broken-off hexagonal offcuts. It is a rural site, but very close to a Roman town in southern England.<br>
><br>
> Would any of you have any tips on the most useful way to record the deposit and/or a good reference material. I already know of Vine St (Leicester) and Sagalassos (Turkey). There is unlikely to be time for me to do a in-depth analysis of the bone working procedure, but the assemblage would be retained for future research.<br>
