Dental Remains From Mound 20 at Noin Ula, Mongolia
The morphology of the preserved enamel caps of seven permanent teeth found in a Xiongnu burial at Noin Ula, Mongolia, suggests that the buried individual was a young woman. Highly diagnostic descriptive traits form a very rare combination which occurs in certain ancient and modern populations of the Caspian–Aral region and in the northern Indus–Ganges interfluve. The Parthian woolen cloth found in the grave makes it likely that the woman was of n…
