Hi Jacqui ,
Working in the field caused a little delay in electronic communication and
so I just read the ZooArch-mails of the last weeks. I'd like to add a couple
of citations to the discussion:
There is another article by Anna K. Behrensmeyer et al. dealing with the
effects of transport in flowing water:
BOAZ, NOEL T. & BEHRENSMEYER, ANNA KAY (1976): Hominid Taphonomy: Transport
of Human Skeletal Parts in an Artificial Fluviatile Environment. - American
Journal of Physical Anthropology 45, 53-60, Philadelphia
Furthermore you will find lots of informations about this topic in
paleontological literature as the role of water is one of the major
taphonomic questions in the formation of "bonebeds". Here is something that
I just could grab without research:
MÜLLER, ARNO HERMANN (1992): Lehrbuch der Paläozoologie, Band 1, 5. Auflage,
Jena / Stuttgart
DODSON, PETER / BEHRENSMEYER, ANNA KAY / BAKKER, ROBERT T. / MCINTOSH, JOHN
S. (1980): Taphonomy and paleoecology of the dinosaur beds of the Jurassic
Morrison Formation. - Paleobiology 6(2), 208-232, Chicago
