White's method

White's method
1) estimation of the number of individuals based on remains, e.g. in an archaeological sample of fish vertebrae, the observed sample frequency (O) and expected frequency (weighted mean)(E) are obtained for various types of vertebrae (atlas, thoracic, caudal, etc.) and the minimum number of individuals is obtained from Σ(O/E)/N
2) determining the size of fish, or amount of flesh furnished, from archaeological remains using the average size of an individual of a particular species, based on fishery data and the ratio between bone and flesh weights. See also Cook and Traganza method
