Or better yet, what about all of the buffalo skeletons from the Midwest?

They were gathered by the ton and shipped off to make fertilizer. Bonetrail, North Dakota (near ghost town, now) got its name from the trade.

I was using the buffalo skeletons as an analogy to how external conditions impact the remains of Indians. I was alluding to how they were used after the buffalo were slaughtered, but I didn’t know that. Thanks.
