Hello zooarchers!
As I have understand it the dorsal surface on the distal phalanx of cattle becomes convex with age. Does that also counts for the distal ph in horses?
Best regards,
Ylva

Ämne: [ZOOARCH] Vestigial bone
Hi everybody,
Please have a look there : http://zooarchaeology.ning.com/photo/albums/cervus-elaphus
I'd like to be sure of what is that bone of Cervus elaphus : fibula or vestigial metapodial ?
Does anybody have the answer ?
Thanks in advance
Thierry Argant
