From Fragmented Records to Digital Insights
The archaeological record is inherently fragile, and excavation is, by nature, destructive. While the recording of excavation processes has improved significantly, many archaeological sites excavated over the past decades remain under-reported or unpublished. These sites often have incomplete excavation records, hand-drawn sketches, non-annotated photographs, and fragmented fieldnotes associated with them, posing a significant challenge for conte…
Unidentified Bodies in the Mexican Context
The discovery of clandestine graves has become a recurrent event during the last ten years in Mexico, and there could be more than roughly 2000 distributed all over the country (Guillen et al. 2018). Mass graves specifically are less well-known, reported, and addressed; they are located in municipal or state cemeteries which house unidentified bodies and of which there is no official census. An estimated 26,000 bodies are considered unidentified …
Cuerpos No Identificados en el Contexto Mexicano
El hallazgo de fosas clandestinas se ha convertido en un hecho recurrente durante los últimos diez años en México, estimándose que podrían existir más de 2000 repartidas por todo el país (Guillen et al. 2018). Menos conocidas, reportadas y atendidas son las fosas comunes, localizadas en panteones municipales o estatales, que albergan cuerpos de personas no identificados y de las cuales no hay un censo oficial. Se estima que existen unos 26000 cue…
Ética, Bioarqueología y Publicaciones Científicas
La excavación, análisis, conservación y restitución de restos humanos procedentes de sitios arqueológicos conllevan desafíos éticos que los profesionales de la arqueología y patrimonio deben conocer. Sin embargo, en las publicaciones, éstos se suelen soslayar. Este trabajo examina la aprobación ética requerida en publicaciones sobre restos humanos en catorce revistas de Argentina y Chile. Se examinaron catorce revistas que aceptan trabajos de inv…
Evidence of otitis media and mastoiditis in a Medieval Islamic skeleton from Spain and possible implications for ancient surgical treatment of the condition
Arqueología funeraria andalusí en Cataluña y la provincia de Castellón
El presente trabajo ofrece una síntesis de los conocimientos arqueológicos e históricos sobre el poblamiento andalusí mediante un inventario de hallazgos funerarios en Cataluña, con la provincia de Castellón como referente de comparación. Se presentan nuevos datos relativos a hallazgos aún inéditos de los yacimientos de Plà de Almatà (Balaguer) y la Vall d’Uixó (Castellón). Cataluña formaba parte de la Frontera Superior de al-Andalus, por lo que …
Using nutrient foramina to differentiate human from non-human long bone fragments in bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology
). Macroscopic evaluation of location, direction and appearance, and micro-CT scanning in order to measure angle and shape of canal entrance, were applied in this study to differentiate human from non-human nutrient foramina on long bone shafts. Observations regarding the location and direction of nutrient foramina were proven to be different between human and non-human bones; however, these two features might not be exploitable in cases of highl…

Forty years of ‘Archaeology for children’
The last 40 years have seen an increase in outreach activities, many primarily targeted to children, in archaeology. This outreach has benefited both the discipline of archaeology as well as public education. Several projects have pioneered the development of ‘archaeology for children’ in recent decades and have narrowed the gap between heritage and the public.An overview of these developments is presented in this paper. Particular reference is m…
Age estimation
An overview of age estimation in forensic anthropology
CONTEXT: Information on methods of age estimation in physical anthropology, in particular with regard to age-at-death from human skeletal remains, is widely available in the literature. However, the practicalities and real challenges faced in forensic casework are not always highlighted. OBJECTIVES: To provide a practitioner's perspective, regarding age estimation in forensic anthropology (both in the living as well as the dead), with an emphasis…
Forensic archaeology
A High-Status Seventh-Century Female Burial From West Hanney, Oxfordshire
In 2009, a metal-detector find of a rare garnet-inlaid composite disc brooch at West Hanney, Oxfordshire, led to the excavation of an apparently isolated female burial sited in a prominent position overlooking the Ock valley. The burial dates to the middle decades of the seventh century, a period of rapid socio-political development in the region, which formed the early heartland of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Wessex. The de luxe brooch links the …
