For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Animal bone, cow (bos taurus) tibia Subject The topic of the resource Food fuels us; the bones left in the aftermath reflect the foodways of consumption. The large 13.8 cm by 4.5 cm size places this bone as the tibia of a cow. The slight and deep indentations inflicted on the bone reflect the consumption of beef on campus while highlighting the role of butchers and chefs. The “Great Butter Rebellion” of the 18th century makes evident the poor food quality at the college. The evidence of marrow removal from the tibia reflects the practical use of the whole animal. In juxtaposition with the bone, Jonathan Fisher’s “Orthographical Projection of Hollis Hall” in 1792 includes two bulls grazing and a pen next to Hollis, reflecting the legend of the Hollis Professor of Divinity holding bovine grazing rights. However, bulls and grazing rights reflect animals less used for consumption and more so economic status, while the tibia’s butcher marks mean it was likely outsourced from a nearby farm or butchery. To end the foodway journey, the soft edges of the tibia, rather than a clean-break, mean it was likely thrown into a trash pitt. My dating hypothesis is the late 18th century, reflecting the excavation in unit H980 at Level 6. The amount of debris situated Level 6 with the fire of the first Harvard Hall in 1764. The substantial quantity of nails and glass, assumed to be from Harvard Hall I, along with bone fragments, highlights the femur’s foodway in conjunction with the greater history of Harvard’s reinvention.
