Identification and quantification of projectile impact marks on bone: new experimental insights using osseous points.

While our sample is small, it produced a clear trend (Fig. 7 ); the probability of a bone to be marked by PIM is inversely correlated with its preservation potential (approximated by the maximum bone mineral density values for each bone; Spearman’s r = − 0.70, p = 0.01).
