 APPENDIX II


 To gain a complete and accurate picture of fauna through archaeological
 sources on the island of St. John, one would have to conduct more complete
 studies than made possible by our limited testing on this island and St. Thomas.
 Nevertheless, the following tabulations will indicate the nature of faunal in-
 clusions in prehistoric sites and should form a resource for expanded biological
 studies.
 We owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. Pierce Brodkorb, Professor of Biological
Sciences, University of Florida, for identifications of bird bones from our
tests. In like manner, we are most appreciative for other vertebrate identifica-
tions made by Mr. Jesse S. Robertson, Jr., Graduate Assistant, Florida State
Museum.
