Examining the use of Amazon's Mechanical Turk for edge extraction of the occlusal surface of fossilized bovid teeth.
In order to reconstruct environments associated with Plio-Pleistocene hominins in southern Africa, researchers frequently rely upon the animals associated with the hominins, in particular, animals in the Family Bovidae. Bovids in southern Africa are typically identified by their teeth. However, iden...
