Norbert You have done us a service! Those pictures convince me that there is no longer any reason to doubt that Julia's crown is human.

What a great forum the list is! Concerning the pointy cusps, these are quite normal for unfinished crowns of human deciduous molars. I have uploaded some pictures to ZooBook to illustrate this (http://zooarchaeology.ning.com/photo [1]). As Richard pointed out, the lack of fissures in Julia's tooth can be expected in crowns that are still being formed. Best, Norbert Links: ------ [1] http://zooarchaeology.ning.com/photo
