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.

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.
