Osteology & Forensic Archaeology
Human Osteology & Bone ID
Osteology, or better known to the public as bone identification, is the scientific study of bones. The identification process includes a detailed study of the remains, inventory, ancestry and aging data, and other non-metric traits. We focus closely on human osteology.
Non-Forensic Recovery and Repatriation
Our human osteology services include coordination of Native American repatriation, development of a course of action unique to each project, expediting identification and resolution, excavation, pre-sorting osteological remains, and providing design phase project assessment for risk management.
