## Butchery Recording

Bone ID
This field cannot be altered by the user, and is transferred automatically from the main recording form.

Butchery Type
This combo box gives users the option of typing in the abbreviation, or choosing a category from the list. A variety of knife, chop and split descriptions are already present, although should the user wish to enter a value that isn't on the list, they will be prompted to do so using the customise form.

Area
This field can be used in a variety of ways. If the species and element combination chosen has a diagnostic zone form, this can be launched by clicking the Zone Diagrams button. (See the list of all diagnostic zones, and the explanation page for more information.)
This field is also attached to a lookup table, which can contain information relating to the location of butchery marks in certain planes of the element (frontal, transverse, etc.). This list can be augmented using the customise form. Users may wish to use only one of these recording methods, to simplify the later analytical stages.

Notes
This field permits users to enter details relating to butchery, including whether or not any drawings were taken of the specimen. If more space is needed, a scroll bar appears on the right side of the field.

Finally, users can progress to a new record using the New Record button, thus allowing multiple records to be taken on one bone ID. This is preferred over the navigation buttons at the bottom of the form, as they will not copy over the bone ID. Users can also Delete unwanted records, or Close the form.
