Protein analysis from eraser crumbs

[Morten St. George]

Hi Morten!
I assume you mean the animal on the back page? Not the Venezuelan marsh deer? (Which is.... A deer!)
I think many people assume it's a goat. Anton has remarked upon the link between the two images and the text here:

Am extensive discussion upon the text is also available, search for 116v to see the threads.

Hi David,

It is really wonderful to see that this discussion group is active. Maybe we can all help each other.

Thanks for that pointer to Anton's post, to which I have responded.

I'm still reluctant to give up on my S. Am. marsh deer idea because the animal's ears and black-colored lower legs match the marsh deer better than the goat. I arranged for a link to my website to be posted in a zoology subreddit. Maybe one of the pros there will have something to say.

I really wish the cow protein bioarchaeologists had published on paper on their research so that I could evaluate their method. Does anyone know if they randomly selected the pages to test upon arrival at the library, or were the pages pre-selected by the Beineke Library? These are the type of questions that a scientific paper would have answered.

BTW, I really like my nickname Discipulus! Thanks. I might use it elsewhere.
