Bone Clones is pleased that informative evaluation reports have been produced for most of our human skeletons, skulls and postcranial items. These reports were created by Evan Matshes, M.D, human osteology consultant and co-author of Human Osteology and Skeletal Radiology, or Karen Ramey Burns, Ph.D., forensic anthropologist and author of Forensic Anthropology Training Manual. These reports contain sections (where appropriate) regarding general characteristics of the specimen, for example, degree of sutural fusion, shape and configuration of the skull, and description of the dentition. Included also are sections concerning the age, sex and race of the specimen with a clear indication of the non-metric measures that went into the determination (or inability to make a determination) of such. Pathologic or traumatic features are also explored, and, in Burns' reports, illustrative photographs provided. In addition, the reports contain suggestions for educational use in both the forensic and anatomy instructional settings, including appropriate teaching points as well as caveats. We provide a link to each report on the corresponding webpage for each Bone Clones item and have provided the group of reports here for your convenience. Should you have questions or comments regarding the report, please contact us at reports@boneclones.com. |
