Regarding the following article mentioned by Kevin Rielly:
> West, B. 1982. Spur development: Recognising caponised fowl in archaeological material. In Wilson, B., Grigson, C. and Payne, S. Ageing and Sexing animal bones from archaeological sites. BAR British Series 109. 255-261.
I would like to add that this must be read in conjunction with a later paper in which Barbara West re-evaluated some of her earlier assumptions:
West, B. 1985.Chicken legs revisited. Circaea 3(1), 11-14.
Cheers,
Umberto
