Figure 2: Frequencies of the relative importance of skeletal elements (blue) shown in % NISP (n = 1035) of all phocid seals and relative importance of skeletal elements with recorded cuts marks (red) shown in % NISP (n = 191). The skeletal element ranking reflects the meat utility values starting with the most flesh rich elements, the ribs (after Lyman et al. 1992) (Image credit: A. Glykou)
