Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fossil Vertebrates From the Alachua Clays of Florida The bones are invariably found in a stiff and extremely tenacious clay, which occupies depressions on the higher knolls which rise here and there above the general level, and usually near a pond, sink, or other depression, still lower than the patch or strip of clay. Small and delicate bones are rare, and the remains are usually the parts best adapted to resist destruction. They are usually mixed without order, but parts of one skeleton have several times been found in nearly their natural positions with relation to one another.
