The Bone Room -Disarticulated Human Skeletons

Disarticulated Human Skeletons

Real Bone - Human Skeletons - These are our professionally prepared human skeletons, un-assembled. Our sources of human skeletons have remained, but are proving more and more inconsistent over the years . Our best specimens are skeletons imported from India during the 1970s for medical and educational use. We purchase these skeletons from private collectors, museums, estates, etc. Depending on their previous use, country of origin, and preparatory style they may show varying degrees of wear.

We only receive a handful of these each year. so call us at (510) 526-5252 or email us at evolve@boneroom.com, to get individual picture of specimens with your criteria, or to be put on the wish list if one is not available.

Human Bone Laws & Information

In short, it is perfectly legal to posses and sell human bones in the United States. There are a few exceptions and addendums to this including a few states where import and export has been banned, and of course, protected archaeological resources covered by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act. For more information and specifics please visit our Bone FAQ page.

Human Bone Price Increase***

While it has not been too long since I was forced to raise human bone prices, I must do it again. Supplies have continued to fall since China, the only country recently shipping significant numbers of human bones, passed a law outlawing their export right before the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

After a much longer period of exporting very large quantities of human bones, India outlawed export from that country in 1985. A large percentage of the current stock in the U.S. came from those two sources, and with no new country exporting to fill the demand, the price has increased very markedly. Hence, we have had to raise prices on all of our natural human bone products as of 3-1-10. - Ronald Cauble, Owner.
