No complaints have yet been received from professionals ;)

They either never read the book or do not visit this forum:-)
Or both.

Regretfully, neither reference was from professional anatomy or dentistry book. It is their opinion that I hoped to learn from.

Museum staff and collectors must also know what they are talking about. After all, none of them are carvers or traders who may use whatever lingo they want.

Guys,


I think the dental debate has been exhausted. Let's move on please.

You probably didn't get it. But I will repeat it again. The book is not addressed to dentists and biologists - specialists in walruses. The terms that I used are used by ethnographers, museum workers, and professional bone cutters. I realized that you did not know this. But now you know that.
In addition, the book received numerous positive reviews from experts from various museums and from art restorers :)

Thanks so much for understanding Ian.

Sorry for my last post. But probably my bad English made it difficult for Ariel to understand what I am writing about. I hope he understood now.
