This chapter addresses some of the questions and issues associated with the “four signals” of bone histology, with the aim of actuating further research. It discusses how knowledge in skeletochronology, linear and mass growth rates, and timing of the reproductive maturity of extinct tetrapods can be applied to life-history reconstructions.

Keywords:   bone histology, life-history reconstructions, skeletochronology, growth rates, tetrapods
