Characterization of structural changes in modern and archaeological burnt bone: Implications for differential preservation bias.

Characterization of structural changes in modern and archaeological burnt bone: Implications for differential preservation bias.

Structural and thermodynamic factors which may influence burnt bone survivorship in archaeological contexts have not been fully described. A highly controlled experimental reference collection of fresh, modern bone burned in temperature increments 100-1200˚C is presented here to document the changes...
