Dear Adam,

this paper that discusses dog domestication in Danube Gorges includes raw
measurements of mandibles and teeth of Mesolithic/Neolithic dogs and recent
wolves from the central Balkans. I will send you pdf in the following mail
(offlist).

Dimitrijević, V. and Vuković, S., 2012., Was the Dog Locally Domesticated
in the Danube Gorges? Morphometric Study of Dog Cranial Remains From Four
Mesolithic–Early Neolithic Archaeological Sites by Comparison With
Contemporary Wolves. *International Journal of Osteoarchaeology*.

Best wishes,

Sonja.
