Age-related disease or disease-related age? Perspectives for paleopathological research
OBJECTIVE: The interconnection of biological aging and disease throughout the life course profoundly affects almost every aspect of paleopathological research but is rarely explored. This paper presents a theoretical and practical framework for an informed research approach that explicitly acknowledges these complex interrelationships. METHODS: We discuss the existing concept of age-related disease and introduce the new concept of disease-related…
Tales from Ginderup Mound in Thisted County, Denmark
The preservation of organic and human remains in Early Nordic Bronze Age mounds (1700 BCE -1100 BCE) permits new provenance work on this important period. Studies have shown that different mobility/non-mobility patterns were exercised by elite women during this time. To extend the database, we conducted strontium isotope analyses of the enamel from the second and third molars from the elite female grave from Ginderup in Thisted County, Denmark. A…
Cranial fluctuating asymmetry in Danish populations from the Neolithic to the Early Modern Age
Fluctuating asymmetry are random deviations of an otherwise symmetrical body plan and arises from instability in development. Earlier studies suggest that levels of cranial fluctuating asymmetry may be influenced by lifestyle and quality of life in a population. It may, therefore, be useful as a stress indicator. We investigated whether cranial fluctuating asymmetry has changed in archaeological Danish populations over time, and between grave sit…
How 3D printing and physical reconstruction of a skull helped in a complex pathological case
Taphonomic changes can mimic pathological bone lesions and make it difficult to distinguish between ante- and postmortem abnormalities and to perform differential diagnostics. 3D methods, such as CT scanning and 3D printing, can be used as complementary tools to overcome the taphonomic changes. Here, we reconstructed a skull of an interesting archeological case showing severe pathological changes using 3D printing and physical reconstruction. The…
Leprosy in medieval Denmark
Objectives By focusing on two Danish leprosaria (Næstved and Odense; 13th–16th c. CE) and using diet and origin as proxies, we follow a multi‐isotopic approach to reconstruct life histories of patients and investigate how leprosy affected both institutionalized individuals and the medieval Danish community as a whole. Materials and Methods We combine archaeology, historical sources, biological anthropology, isotopic analyses (δ 13 C, δ 15 N, δ 34…
Lost and found
The human remains recovered from the famous Bjerringhøj Viking Age burial in Denmark have been missing for more than 100 years. Recently, an assemblage of bones resembling those recorded at Bjerringhøj-some with adherent textiles-were discovered in a misplaced box in the National Museum of Denmark. Here, the authors use new skeletal and comparative textile analyses, along with radiocarbon dating, to confirm that the bones are indeed those from th…

Wounded to the bone
Investigating adult diet during Industrialization in Copenhagen based on stable isotope analysis of bone collagen and hair keratin
This study investigated human diets during the nineteenth and twentieth century in Copenhagen through stable isotope analysis of carbon and nitrogen according to sex, age, socio-economic status, and period (of death). Stable isotope analysis was conducted on bone collagen (n = 114) and hair keratin (n = 21) recovered from individuals buried at the Assistens Cemetery. Animal samples (n = 40) from eighteenth and nineteenth century deposits in Copen…

Uniform diet in a diverse society. Revealing new dietary evidence of the Danish Roman Iron Age based on stable isotope analysis
A systematic dietary investigation during Danish Roman Iron Age (1‐375AD) is conducted by analyzing stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) in the collagen of human and animal bone. The human sample comprises 77 individuals from 10 burial sites. In addition 31 samples of mammals and fish were analyzed from same geographical area. The investigation characterizes the human diet among different social groupings and analyses di…
The petrous bone—A new sampling site for identifying early dietary patterns in stable isotopic studies
Intraskeletal variation in the composition of carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) stable isotopes measured in collagen is tested from various human bones and dentine. Samples were taken from the femur, rib, and petrous part of the temporal bone from well‐preserved skeletons of both adults ( n = 34) and subadults ( n = 24). Additional samples of dentine from the root of 1st molars were taken from 16 individuals. The skeletal material is from a m…
Using Coconuts as a Model for Analysing the Injury Pattern of Cranial Blunt Trauma
Blunt trauma to the head may result in the blunt instrument leaving specific imprints or fracture patterns.Being able to correctly correlate one or more possible blunt instruments with the imprints and fractures of an actual case may be important in police investigations.However, most of our knowledge about blunt instruments and cranial imprints and fracture patterns stems from earlier tests performed on cadavers, or more recently, advanced mecha…
