The two teeth and jawbone contained only mitochondrial DNA, whose separate sequence is too small to produce a conclusive match to any individual.
It says in this article that when they exhumed this little ones body they got two teeth and a jaw bone for DNA extraction.I believe if they still have these teeth and jaw bone they can send in a new sample and have them do the isotope testing.If not they do indeed need to exhume him to do isotope and other testing to help find out who he is.I feel it is very selfish of them if the don't exhume him to do these testing.It's wrong.This little boy deserves his real name on his grave like all of us will have.
