Hyoid bones are part of a complex of small bones in the throat region of mammals, including hoofed mammals (artiodactyls). Many archaeological sites with faunal remains lack hyoid bones; however, hyoid bones do occur in sites with large numbers of artiodactyl remains. Hyoid bones have been recovered with butchery marks and used as ornaments in archaeological sites across the Plains and Eastern United States. Hyoid bones are poorly known to many zooarchaeologists, and simple questions, such as how to side these bones, have not been well resolved. This project involved extracting hyoid bones in place from multiple artiodactyls to ensure an adequate sample for determining side, as well as adding to a sample for identifying artiodactyl species....
