Artificial cranial deformation
There are various classifications of artificial cranial deformations. Among Russian anthropologists, the scheme of E.V. Zhirov (1940) is popular. As reference carriers of parietal deformation, he described samples from the Okunevo burials in Southern Siberia (Bronze Age), Zoroastrian and Nestorian medieval burials in Central Asia. However, later conclusions by E.V. Zhirov and other researchers concerning the deformation type in these series are c…
Variants of fixing a deformed area on 3D models of neurocranium
The morphology of skulls with occipito-parietal deformation is mainly influenced by two factors: the artificial deformation itself and the natural morphology of the skull. Basing on morphometric methods our study is focused on identifying possible interaction between these two factors. We suggested that reduction the analyzed area to the deformed region of the skull may provide a more precise understanding of the variation in occipitoparietal fla…

AI allows work with data to extend well beyond simple keyword searches or formulaic calculations. It is applied to help specialists in the history of art and in discourse analysis as well as in linguistics and physical anthropology who analyse big corpora and construct models. Participants in the "Forum", a written round table, are representatives of the social sciences and humanities. They describe their contact with such applications in their p…

Cranial deformation in the northwestern Caspian Sea region in the Bronze Age
This research examined the occipitoparietal deformations of the Early Bronze Age skulls from the southern European part of Russia and the similarities between those deformations and head modifications among the population of the Okunev culture in Southern Siberia. The study objects used were 3D models of neurocrania from 41 individuals retrieved from Early Bronze Age graves in the northwestern Caspian Sea region and 64 individuals from the Okunev…

Analysis of 3D-Models of Artificially Deformed Crania, Using Geometric Morphometry
Изучение искусственно деформированных черепов осложнено неудобством анализа криволинейных форм без надежных ориентиров для измерения. Методы геометрической морфометрии позволяют решить эту проблему. В статье анализируются 3D-модели деформированных черепов из погребений разных хронологических горизонтов окуневской археологической культуры (XXVI-XVIII вв. до н.э., Южная Сибирь): 26 мужских и 19 женских из памятников Верхний Аскиз I, Уйбат III, V, У…

Analysis of 3D-Models of Artificially Deformed Crania, Using Geometric Morphometry
The study of artificially deformed crania is complicated by difficulties in analyzing curvilinear shapes without reliable reference points for measurement. Methods of geometric morphometrics (GM) help to solve this problem. We generated 3D-models of deformed crania (26 male and 19 female) from burials of different chronological periods of the Okunev archaeological culture (Verkhniy Askiz I, Uybat III and V, Uybat-Charkov, Itkol I and II), Souther…
Cranioscopic Data on the Population of the Steppe and the Forest-Steppe Belts in Eastern Europe of Iv-Iii Mill. Bc
В статье представлены результаты изучения шести краниоскопических признаков на 487 черепах раннего и среднего этапов эпохи бронзы из степной и лесостепной зон Восточной Европы. Выборки сформированы в основном по культурно-территориальному принципу. Межгрупповая изменчивость изученных признаков анализировалась с помощью таблиц сопряженности, точного критерия Фишера и метода главных компонент. Зафиксировано значительное морфологическое разнообразие…
Cranial materials from the Oglakhty burial ground
In this article means of cranial measurements and indexes of the Tashtyk sample from the Oglakhty burial ground obtained as a result of analysis and integration of the measurements of G. Debets, V. Alexeev and I. Gokhman are presented. Also we updated the means of the pooled Tashtyk sample. It was demonstrated that the Oglakhty cranial sample cover the whole spectrum of variability of the Tashtyk population. The data on 37 male and 35 female Earl…
The population history of northeastern Siberia since the Pleistocene
The formation of human populations in South and Central Asia
Ancient human movements through Asia Ancient DNA has allowed us to begin tracing the history of human movements across the globe. Narasimhan et al. identify a complex pattern of human migrations and admixture events in South and Central Asia by performing genetic analysis of more than 500 people who lived over the past 8000 years (see the Perspective by Schaefer and Shapiro). They establish key phases in the population prehistory of Eurasia, incl…
Neolithic-Eneolithic Paleoanthropological Sources From the Middle Irtysh Area
The present article studies the craniofacial morphology of human skulls uncovered from Neolithic-Eneolithic burials (5–4 millennia BC) in the Middle Irtysh basin. The obtained skulls belong to four archaeological sites: Omsk site and Ust-Kurenga in the forest/forest-steppe zone of Russia, as well as Shiderty-3 and Zhelezinka in the steppe zone of North-East Kazakhstan. In order to study these materials, we performed craniometric analysis and an i…

The Early Iron Age Populations of the Minusinsk Hollow
By means of multivariate statistics, we analyzed male craniological series of the Early Iron Age from Western and Southern Siberia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. The intra-group analysis of the series from the Minusinsk Hollow reveals specificity of individuals from the tombs of the Tesinsk culture, in comparison with other groups. At the same time, the population which left Tesinsk burials is obviously related to the Tagar culture. The analys…

Optimal Ancient DNA Yields from the Inner Ear Part of the Human Petrous Bone
The invention and development of next or second generation sequencing methods has resulted in a dramatic transformation of ancient DNA research and allowed shotgun sequencing of entire genomes from fossil specimens. However, although there are exceptions, most fossil specimens contain only low (~ 1% or less) percentages of endogenous DNA. The only skeletal element for which a systematically higher endogenous DNA content compared to other skeletal…
Population genomics of Bronze Age Eurasia
The Bronze Age of Eurasia (around 3000–1000 BC) was a period of major cultural changes. However, there is debate about whether these changes resulted from the circulation of ideas or from human migrations, potentially also facilitating the spread of languages and certain phenotypic traits. We investigated this by using new, improved methods to sequence low-coverage genomes from 101 ancient humans from across Eurasia. We show that the Bronze Age w…
Human Crania From the Tes Burial Ground, Kamenka Iii
Measurements and nonmetric traits in an Early Iron Age cranial series from Kamenka III, Southern Siberia (Tes stage of the Late Tagar Culture, 200 BC – 100 AD), were subjected to multivariate analysis. The burial ground is situated in the northern part of the Tes distribution area. The group is similar to the Tes populations of southern Khakassia and to the pooled Early Tagar group. Craniometrically, Tes and Early Tagar samples resemble Bronze Ag…
Collateral relatives of American Indians among the Bronze Age populations of Siberia
Nonmetric and metric traits were studied in cranial series representing prehistoric and modern populations of America and Siberia. Frequencies of the infraorbital pattern type II (longitudinal infraorbital suture overlaid by the zygomatic bone) are universally lower in Amerindians than in Siberians. The os japonicum posterior trace, too, is much less frequent in America than in Siberia. The only two Siberian groups with an almost Amerindian combi…
