MATERIALS AND METHODSThe fused distal three vertebrae of BP/1/6771 were scanned using a Nikon Metrology XTH 225/320 LC computed tomography (CT) system (Microfocus CT facility of the Palaeosciences Centre, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg) with an isotropic voxel size of 66.7 microns (140 kV, 260 μA, 1.2 mm 3, 3 frames averaged in step-by-step mode, 8000 projections of 0.5 s over 360, algorithmic correction of beam hardening). The three-dimensional (3D) processing of the 16 bits data was performed using VGStudio Max 2.1 (Volume Graphics, Heidelberg, Germany). This software was also used to produce external renderings and anaglyph stereo images (Fig. 1; Supplementary Data, Figs. S2–S5). CT data are reposited at the University of the Witwatersrand.
