By: Gabel, Norman E..
AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
The skeletal remains of Bear Ruin represent forty individuals. The remains are in a state of poor preservation. Gabel presents the morphological and metrical descriptions of the more complete remains. Some of the skulls show deformation probably due to having their heads strapped to a cradleboard. The analysis concludes that the remains represent a mixed population.
