What is Evaluating Bone Density in Zooarchaeology about?

This document discusses different methods used to study bone density in zooarchaeology. It reviews two recent studies that argued the role of bone density in shaping archaeological assemblages has been overrated, but based their conclusions on inaccurately derived density values. The document evaluates different techniques for deriving bone density values, finding computed tomography produces the most accurate data while photon densitometry requires adjusting for cross-sectional shape. It concludes the vari
