Estelle was my first tutor in classical archaeology back in 1993...I remember the class. Estelle entered a small room off the Nicholson Museum at the University of Sydney where a bunch of over awed 18 year old's cowered. She carried a large cardboard box. She placed the box on a table and dumped out the contents. She told us to put it all together...a human skeleton... with a difference. There was an extra bone. No-one knew what it was...Estelle did, she was trying to trick us. It was the bone from a dog's penis.
