Description:

On the basis of osteometric data concerning the aurochs and domestic cattle in Europe and Asia an attempt was undertaken to isolate skeletal features which would make it possible to identify bones (or their fragments) belonging to either form. The critical values of these features were established for facilitating their identification. Of 25 studied features 14 had one-peak curves of frequency distribution curves. Using the remaining 11 features with multipeak curves the ranges of variability of the dimensions were established for differntiation of these skeletal dimensions characteristic of the aurochs and domestic cattle. The critical values were marked on a point scale constructed jointly for the wild and domesticated form.
