Table 5. BP3 trackway measurements.

The measurements made on the two trackways at BP3 are summarized here. N represents the number of tracks in the trackway. All measurements are reported in meters except for γ, α, and orientation which are measured in degrees. LP[1] and LP[2] represent the left pace measurements taken between LPx and RPx of the trackways respectively (track designations figured on outline drawings). RP represents the right pace measurements between RP1 and LP2. S[1] and S[2] are the stride lengths between the left feet and the right feet respectively. WAP[1] is the trackway width measured between LP1 and LP2 with RP1 as the focal point while WAP[2] is the trackway width measured between RP1 and RP2 with LP2 as the focal point. γ is the pace angulation with [1] using RP1 as the vertex of the angle and [2] using LP2 as the vertex of the angle. Α measures the track rotation of individual footprints. In this case, α [1] corresponds to LP1 and α [2] corresponds to RP2. The fragmentary nature of the footprints measure meant that this value could not be determined with a great deal of confidence.
