Dear Amanda,
Chenhall's was designed to classify only man-made objects. We have quite
a few natural history specimens so we added three additional categories to
accommodate these with appropriate classifications within these
categories. Since Museum-L does not allow attachments, I will post this
addition to nomenclature on Musedocs which is a Yahoo Groups site. If you
are not a member and don't wish to become one, let me know via e-mail and
I will send you the attachment. Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
David Ryan
Registrar
