First of all...yes Anita, I am getting your messages...I just figured the
list has been idle lately.
Now down to the meat and potatoes...
Has anyone had any experience with genetic sampling using tooth pulp
extraction? I am trying to build a research design adequate for both
historic and prehistoric testing of skeletal series. I have been assured
that I can get state permission to conduct such studies if I can design
adequate research. I cannot bear to see this data thrown away any
longer as burials are usually treated only as obstacles in the way of
development in my study area. I would also appreciate information if
anyone knows of a good bio-arch list:)
