so by your definition a severed foot is, indeed, a skeleton. huh.

If an anthropologist found a 2-million year old intact foot, I think they’d call it a skeleton, sure.

i somehow have a feeling that they'd call that a partial skeleton (aka. less than one)

ehh, partial skeleton, skeleton, what’s the difference? a few missing bones never hurt anybody! /s
