Hi Jim
I have cortical thickness data for about 100 modern sheep (known age, sex,
breed, date of birth etc) as measured by X-radiography. Feel free to get in
touch off list and I will send it through to you.
Cheers
Rob

Subject: [ZOOARCH] Cortical bone thickness in European domesticates
Is anyone aware of any studies that have examined the thickness of the walls
of long bones in the major European domesticates plus the European red deer,
either in modern or archaeological samples? In particular, I'm in need of
any data comparing the thickness of cortical bone in the walls of limb bones
between species and between males, females and castrates of each species,
with an emphasis on sheep, cattle and red deer.
Thanks in advance,
Jim Boyle
