Hemenway, Hrdlička, and Hawikku: A Historical Perspective on Bioarchaeological Research in the American Southwest

Producción científica: Chapterrevisión exhaustiva

Resumen

Dr. Matthews went to Los Muertos in the month of August, 1887. He found that no attention had been paid to the collection or preservation of human bones, which were extremely fragile, crumbling to dust upon a touch, and which had been thrown about and trampled under foot by curious visitors, so that but little remained of value from the work which had been previously done. (Billings, cited in Matthews et al, 1893: 141).
