Description
This pictorial guide will assist amateurs and professionals alike in better understanding what the various complex bumps, grooves, and markings are telling them about their fossils. The book contains chapters on bone morphology, tooth morphology, natural alterations to fossils (taphonomy), bone pathology, tooth pathology, and cultural modifications to bones, teeth, and antlers (what Native Americans did to utilize these prehistoric resources). Over 900 pictures lead the reader toward a more complete understanding of what these long-since-expired creatures are trying to tell them.
