<b>Subject:</b> [Bonetools] small caprine metapodial with

<p><span lang="EN-GB">Dear all, </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span lang="EN-GB">I am writing on behalf of a student of
mine (Aitor Brito) from the Canary Islands who hopefully
will be joining the bone list in brief. He is presently
working on a faunal assemblage recovered from the Hospital
de San Martín, an historic hospital located in the
foundation levels of El Real de Las Palmas (Gran Canaria,
Spain), the first village founded by the Spanish in the late
15<sup>th</sup> century. Chop and cut marks on most of the
faunal remains indicate they are food debris, but there is a
very young caprine metapodial that presents some weird marks
on the lateral side of the diaphysis. I am sorry the
pictures attached are not very good but I hope you would be
able to see what I mean. We are not sure about their origin.
Are they anthropogenic? They do not look like gnawing marks
to me. The spacing between them and their morphology are
quite regular as if they could have been caused by a tool.
We would be very grateful for any comments or ideas.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
