A werewolf. A vampire. Bones that argue with each other.
Two signatures in one set of bones, across eight specimens and six sites. Mass spectrometry, not a story.
The dual-signature method
Contact pathology · Bone, two signaturesCopperplate · OVERLORD · Plate VI · Type-V and reverse dissolution
Low-copy methylated LERV in the general population is what HHDRV normally meets. High-expression LERV is what Type-V meets.
in the ground is two markers, two frameworks, one specimen. : bilateral at Achilles, supraspinatus, lateral epicondyle, gluteus medius — symmetrical, too much for the age, the Hydraulic Engine's map. : an unclassifiable iron-porphyrin in trabecular bone, not protoporphyrin IX, not copro, not uro — the same compound the AFIP pathologist named in the Black Forest dermis. Mass spectrometry, not a story. Eight sets. Six sites. Europe and western Asia.
Neither category is proof. Together they are a pattern whose geography, chronology, and cultural memory the Committee will not dismiss. The Black Forest body is the type specimen of contact that did not stabilise. The catalogue is the claim that it was not unique.
