Subject: [ZOOARCH] Camelid bones, metrics
Greetings all,
I am looking for assistance from anyone who has experience working with
camelid remains. I have a mystery bone that I sporadically found in my
assemblage. I've uploaded an album to my page, labeled "unknown llama
bone". The complete specimen shown -- in both photos -- is derived from a
modern llama comparative. Could this specimen represent a vestigial or
cranium-associated bone? Any ideas? I am a bit stumped.
Also relating to camelids, does anyone have a pdf copy or access to the
following Argentinian conference pub?:
Menegaz, A., M. Salemme and E. Ortiz Jaurequizar
1988 Una propuesta de sistematización de los caracteres morfométrics de
los meapodios y las falanges de Camelidae. In De Processos, contextos y
otros huesos, edited by N. Ratto and A. Haber, pp. 53-64. UBA, ICA, Buenos
Aires, Argentina.
The publication has proved inaccessible by Interlibrary Loan in the States.
Cheers,
Matthew
