Correction for Douglass et al., Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene sites in the montane forests of New Guinea yield early record of cassowary hunting and egg harvesting

ANTHROPOLOGY Correction for “Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene sites in the montane forests of New Guinea yield early record of cassowary hunting and egg harvesting,” by Kristina Douglass, Dylan Gaffney, Teresa J. Feo, Priyangi Bulathsinhala, Andrew L. Mack, Megan Spitzer, and Glenn R. Summerhayes, which published September 27, 2021; 10.1073/pnas.2100117118 (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 118, e2100117118).

The authors wish to note that Table 1 appeared incorrectly. The corrected table appears below. The online version has been corrected.

Table 1.

NISP, total and average sample surface area, and estimated MNI of Kiowa and Yuku cassowary eggshell assemblages

	NISP	Estimated total eggshell surface area in mm2	Average sample area in mm2	Estimated MNI
KIOWA	31	746.93	24.09	0.283
Terminal Pleistocene/ Early Holocene	17	374.09	22.01	0.141
Mid-Holocene	14	372.85	26.63	0.142
YUKU	988	25,224.88	25.53	9.555
Last Glacial Maximum	28	777.59	27.77	0.295
Terminal Pleistocene/ Early Holocene	867	22,504.93	25.96	8.525
Unstratified	93	1,942.36	20.89	0.736

MNI is estimated by dividing total eggshell surface area (calculated using sample length and width measurements) by 2,640, which represents an estimate of the surface area of an intact dwarf cassowary egg in square millimeters.
