The specimens were documented photographically and radiographically.

The radiocarbon dating sample was sent to the University of Zurich.

The isotopic analysis was conducted at institutions with the relevant laboratory capabilities.

The physical anthropological examination was done by specialists in skeletal biology.

The lithic analysis of the stone tools was done by Gene Titmus, a specialist in flintknapping technology who was based in the Idaho region.

The full report was published in 1998 — seven years after the reburial and nine years after the discovery.

The delay reflects the time required for multi-author collaboration, analysis, writing, and peer review, as well as the complexity of completing a scientific report on a discovery where access to the physical evidence was time-limited.
