Throwing bones also called osteomancy. Throwing bones means to literally throw bones among other things (seashells,stones,etc)on to a hard surface and read the message from the patterns they fall in. Each part means something different. Most osteomancy sets are easy to make but if you want they are sold online. Traditionally they have animal bones in them but if you  some how get human bones i guess you could use them just do it legally. Some things you could add teeth,seashells ,twigs,crystals, and acorns. Basically just random parts of nature, or anything small that holds value. Like the charm of a necklace, a button of someones clothes, a key I've even heard of people who have kids will add the clip thing hat hold the umbilical cord into it. Make the meaning for everything write the item and the meaning behind each thing, and put them in a small box or bag but make sure you cleanse it first. Then just pour or gently toss your bones and see how they fall. Look at if there upside down or which way they are pointing at each other. There's no wrong way of doing it so come up with your own style and meanings.
