Annotation
In a pilot study tubular bones of hands of representatives of the Upper Palaeolithic Age from site Kostenki 14 (or markina Gora) and Kostenki 8 (or Telmanovskaya site) have been described. Traditional metric methods have been used. The inner structure has been tested by microfocus X-ray and by the microCT. The presence of indicators of physiological stress (Harris lines) has been recorded. Cross-sectional geometry of tubular bones has been considered.
