Yeah.
And the other thing that's pretty glaring about this is that Montserrat has three phalanges for each digit, and Maria has four.
Now, so, you know, they didn't even use the same number of bones to put the hands together.
Not the same number, not the same type.
And then the last one I'll show you, which there's a lot going on on this slide, so I'll kind of walk you through.
But this one I haven't shown before publicly.
This is Paloma, and this is showing Paloma's left foot and right foot.
And again, Paloma was released, I think, in 2024, and it's another of the larger mummies.
And so there's a reference here for the human in the hand, right?
Now, if we look at the left foot and the right foot,
Now, and I don't know if these are scaled correctly, so the size difference may be just an artifact of the images here.
But this yellow arrow that I'm indicating, that's pointing at another thumb bone that I've already showed you before on Maria.
So this is that same type of bone, and this is the outer digit, I guess you would call it.
And notice that it doesn't look the same shape as the equivalent ones next to it.
And I think maybe you can tell that it looks fatter.
The head of it, we call that the head, it's fatter.
And then if we kind of zoom in a little bit and flip it over, so right next to it, I've got it isolated and you're looking at it from the underside instead of the top.
where these white arrows are pointing, those darkened areas are where there would be two small oval-shaped bones that are involved in helping flexion of the thumb.
So that's another giveaway that this is a metacarpal for the thumb and not a proper phalange.
Yeah, right.
