One Grave, Two Soils

Bilateral Tibial New Bone in a Burial Laid Across a Soil Boundary

A research poster from the School of Underlying Conditions reports one adult churchyard burial whose grave cut crossed the edge of an infilled ditch, leaving the left leg in calcareous ground and the right in acidic fill. Scoring the right leg's eroded surfaces as unobservable rather than absent turns an apparently unilateral pattern of tibial new bone into a bilateral one: of the nine zones observable on both sides, eight agree.
