I've found 6 ferret/polecat metacarpals and 3 metatarsals in Anglo-Norman Winchester (Staple Gardens/Northgate House). The report will be published by Oxford Archaeology.

Dear All,
I am trying to compile a database of all archaeological specimens of polecats and ferrets from the British Isles. If anyone has any data or knows where I could find some, be it published or unpublished, I would be extremely grateful if they could contact me. Any information on collections containing specimens would also be very welcome.
Many thanks,
Frazer Bowen (University of Nottingham).
