<b>Subject:</b> [Bonetools] small caprine metapodial with weird marks<o:p></o:p></p>

<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>
<p><span lang="EN-GB">Best regards,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
