A new tool for zooarchaeological analysis: ArcGIS skeletal templates for some common mammalian species

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Zooarchaeological results are often best presented in the form of anatomical diagrams, but these can be very time-consuming to produce. This article presents ArcGIS format skeletal templates for six common mammalian species, allowing faunal analysts to link their data directly into a representation of the relevant species. The symbology tools within ArcMap can then be used to view data and produce output diagrams much more rapidly than is possible using a conventional graphics package.
