When exploring what is located under the Earth, archeologists and paleontologists use a coordinate grid system. In order to be able to locate and identify artefacts or fossils once they have been removed, their location in term of coordinates is recorded. In this photograph of a dig in Guadalajara, how do you think paleontologists would use coordinates to identify the positions of the bones$?$ Give a specific example, using the bone highlighted in blue.
