Avian Osteology
by B. Miles Gilbert, Larry D. Martin, Howard G. Savage
Category: Animal remains (Archaeology)

Following on from his study of Mammalian Osteology , B Miles Gilbert, with his colleagues, now turns his attention to the identification and analysis of avian bones recovered from sites in North America. In sections devoted to each diagnostic bone in turn, fine drawings allow comparison between species. A catalogue of the common names of birds ends the study.
