The process or state of having a sieve-like structure with many small holes or perforations.
From Latin 'cribrum' (sieve) + '-ation' (process or result). This noun form describes either the condition of being riddled with holes or the action of creating such a perforated pattern.
In geology and anatomy, cribration is how nature creates efficient structures—your bones have natural cribrations that make them lighter while staying strong, like a real sieve!
