I got involved with TIGHAR a few years ago. They sent me to
Fiji and New Zealand last summer to search for some bones
that were found on Gardner Island (now Nikumaroro) in
1940. There is a chance that they may have been hers,....


I gather that an expert can tell a few things from bones, such as sex,
height, age, etc.; but would there be any way to know they were AE's
and not those of some local resident?

May I ask why TIGHAR sent you? I know what "S.J." means, but are you
also an antropologist, archaeologist, paleontologist, or something
like that?
