What can cracks in bone tell us about time since death? What are the implications in Australian archaeological and forensic contexts?

My #dermestid colony stripped a pack of chicken legs in just 24 hours! They even stripped the marrow of the bone. Think they are ready for the upcoming scavenging tasks I'll be assigning them in my #taphonomy research 👍

The Body’s Afterlife: How Mineral Concretions Became Molecular Time Capsules Ancient microbial DNA and proteins preserved in burial concretions are changing how scientists read the record of decay — and revealing a new archive of human history.

Ancient concretions on human remains hold microbial DNA and proteins, revealing how decay itself can preserve life’s molecular traces. A new frontier for archaeology’s molecular record. #Bioarchaeology #AncientDNA #Taphonomy www.anthropology.net/p/the-bodys-...

Today we started construction for Marcus’ Masters research being undertaking in collaboration with #ICCAP. When I was first tasked with undertaking #research on #taphonomy in WAPOLs #CrimeSceneUnit it was 2013 and I’d have never guessed I’d be doing this now. More to come on this exciting project
