Abstract
The importance of studying skeletal part abundance, with respect to economic anatomy, is outlined. The current methodology in this field is discussed. A new method for examining archaeological skeletal part abundance, with respect to bone transportation models, is described. This method scrutinises the difference between observed abundance and economically expected abundance according to food utility. This new method is closely linked to optimal foraging theory. The application of optimal foraging theory to the question of bone transportation by hunters is discussed. The use of the new methodology is illustrated by application to two ethnographic examples; the Inuit sites of Anavik and Anaktiqtauk (Binford 1978). Issues related to the application of such a methodology to archaeological assemblage are discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
