In 2010, a pit containing human skeletal elements was discovered at the site of the former Army hospital in San Francisco. Archaeologists determined that the bones were remains from anatomical dissections conducted in the 1870s. This volume uses historical, archaeological, and bioarchaeological analysis to understand the function of the pit.
