Hm, I see no discussion about left-to-right vs right-to-left positioning of the ordinal Y in the (horizontal) sequences. Is left-to-right taken for granted?

- s1artibartfast 4y agoDoesn't look like it. if you have a hypothesis, write it up and publish it
- yodon 4y agoHopefully someone else can find more context in the paper on left-to-right vs right-to-left sequencing (or animal-facing-direction or towards-the-head(?)-of-the-animal or ? sequencing). The most relevant quote in the paper I could find is >Figure 4 presents the position of <Y> in sequences, by analytical taxa. To determine the position of <Y>, we assumed that sequences were oriented in the same way as their associated animal depictions, i.e. with the animal the right way up. But I don't see how to get a directionality from that quote.
