Summary of audience discussion: Interpretation of crystal 

 characteristics of excavated calcified material is most useful if its 

 location within the body is known precisely. In the thorax, for 

 example, it becomes more informative if it can be determined 

 whether the calcified mass represents simple exudate or a pleural 

 plaque and whether costal periostitis was present. Archcologists 

 need to be made aware of the importance inherent in such detailed 

 observations. Since Dr. Brothwell has observed bacteria in dental 

 plaque specimens viewed by scanning electron microscopy, a simi- 

 lar search for mycobacteria in calcified material suspected to be of 

 tuberculous origin appears desirable, as well as diagnostic immu- 

 nological studies on protein included within calcified material.
