Docs is now updated with the instructions for TML, TML23, and XDA. Pull request created in GitHub.

CoRACore team needs to add the HuMANiD measurements as data entry points in the system. (Man_11, Man_12, and Man_13). @SachinPawaskarUNO

@emilystreetman @clegarde @fedamann We need the following information to add a new method for a specific bone. Please use example below and provide information in table in a separate comment or attach a file.

Field Example
Bone name e.g. Cranium, Mandible, Humerus
Method Name e.g. Edgar 2013, Walker 2008
Reference e.g. JFS 58:S3-S8, Schaefer et al 2009
Type e.g. Age, Sex, Ancestry
Sub Method
Description Ancestry estimation based on dental morphology (African, Hispanic, European)
Uses Feature Scoring true or false
Use Composite Scoring true or false
Help URL Help URL to the Cora docs website

We will also need Method Feature information if the method uses features and the various feature options.

Feature Display Name Display Order Display Values
Tooth 17 Tooth 17 1 {"D":"D - Crown complete", "E":"E - Root length < crown", "F":"F - Funnel-shaped root ends", "G":"G - Root apices open", "H":"H - Root apices closed"}
Tooth 32 Tooth 32 2 {"D":"D - Crown complete", "E":"E - Root length < crown", "F":"F - Funnel-shaped root ends", "G":"G - Root apices open", "H":"H - Root apices closed"}

Seems to me that the HumanID method uses Mandible measurements and not feature scores. We should have a discussion on how Anthropologist plan on using this new method and related measurements.
