Prior to 1987, the majority of human bones for sale here and in other countries were prepared in India. When in 1987, India stopped its exportation of human bones, many US news sources phrased it as a ban on the sale of human bones when in fact it was a merely a ban on exportation from one particular country and had no effect on United States laws. Since then, China has become the main supplier of human bones to the US. However, a large number of Indian bones still remain in the United States and may be freely sold."
