Description

These data include observations and measurements of bone postcranial specimen collected directly by Elizabeth Wright and data compiled from previously published sources. The labels for each bone specimen have been arbitrarily assigned. Labels that include the text "Bone" indicate a specimen directly observed by E. Wright. Labels that include the text "Bonelit" indicate specimen information from previously published sources.

Date ranges are in calendar years BCE. Open Context editors referenced the ARIADNE Consortium periodization scheme to find date ranges relevant to periods in this dataset. These added date ranges facilitate search and retrieval functions, and should be regarded as tentative.
