I have recently excavated a cistern in Brooklyn which was filled with
household refuse dating to the 1860s or 1870s.  The lot was rented by a
single middle-class household during this time.
 
I am unable to analyze the faunal remains myself and am looking for
help.  This project was unfunded, thus I am unable to pay for a faunal
expert; however, the collection is ideal for a student MA thesis or a
comparitive sample for a Ph D.  If somebody knows of a person how would
like to analyze the collection please email me at [log in to unmask]
