Digital archiving of pre-Columbian human remains from the National Museum of Archaeology (Munarq) in La Paz, Bolivia
This article presents the findings of the first comprehensive project that applied virtual archaeology techniques to document, reconstruct in three dimensions, and ethically manage pre-Columbian human remains housed at the National Museum of Archaeology (MUNARQ) in La Paz, Bolivia. The project digitized 47 individuals from the MUNARQ anthropological collection, including 16 complete mummified individuals and 31 human skulls with intentional crani…

Hallux Valgus and Associated Foot Pathology in Ancient Egyptian Mummies
The aim of this study was to gain information on the prevalence and manifestation of hallux valgus and associated foot pathology in ancient Egyptian mummies. Additionally, we investigated possible indicators of postmortem deformation of the feet during mummification. For this study, 34 mummies that had undergone whole body computed tomography (CT) were selected. For qualitative assessment, the body position of the mummies as well as of the feet a…

The conservation soft box (CSB)
The Conservation Soft Box (CSB) is an innovative system designated for cultural heritage. • The CSB's high degree of airtightness allows the creation of customised environments. • The material choice for its composition showed the low level of VOCs emissions. • The CSB solution allows the contents to be analysed with X-rays. • The easy acquiring of the materials, making the CSB solution globally accessible. Ensuring the long-term preservation of …
"Celts" up the Alps. Patterns of territorial mobility and funerary variability in Switzerland during the Late Iron Age
The European Late Iron Age (ca. 5th-1st centuries BCE) is characterized by significant economic, social, and cultural transformations, including the development and intensification of cultural and economic networks. These features make the last centuries BCE relevant for the study of human territorial mobility and its demographic and social correlates. In this study, we investigate the frequency and nature of human mobility during the Late Iron A…
The mummy of Ritter Kahlbutz – an unsolved mystery
In Kampehl, a village northwest of Berlin, a mummified body is preserved and exhibited in a church annexe. It is said to represent the remains of Christian Friedrich von Kahlbutz (1651-1702), a local nobleman. According to local legend, he swore before a court that his body would not decay if he were the culprit in an alleged case of murder. We offer the first comprehensive investigation of the mummy using anthropological and historical methods. …
Unraveling the mummy's shroud
Archaeological questions and genetic answers
In 2010, a detailed anthropological study regarding two adult individuals and one foetus-newborn buried in a Copper Age (ca. 3000–2700 cal. BC) multiple grave site found in Ora/Auer in the eastern Italian Alps (Alto Adige/ Südtirol) was published. This exceptional archaeological finding provides a rare insight into an inhumation prehistoric ritual discovered within a natural alpine rock shelter. Due to the presence of an infant in the grave, the …
Mitogenomic diversity and stable isotopes provide insights into the maternal genetic history, mobility patterns, and diet of early medieval individuals from the Eastern Italian Alps
The Eastern Italian Alps (South Tyrol) is a connection area between continental Italy and the northern Alps. Various local factors, such as the heterogeneous environment, complex historical events, and different mobility patterns, may have influenced the genetic makeup of early medieval alpine groups. However, no ancient genetic data from these groups are currently available. This study provides a first picture of the ancient mitochondrial DNA (m…
Correlation of atherosclerosis and osteoarthritis in ancient Egypt
Trauma patterns and injury prevalence in early medieval Säben-Sabiona, Italy
In the Early Middle Ages (fifth to 11th centuries AD), central Europe was marked by geo-political instabilities and important socio-cultural changes that led to the admixture of different cultures named barbari by the Romans, whose demographic impact is still not fully understood. These events also involved the populations settled in modern day South Tyrol, a region in the north-eastern Italian Alps. In this context, the early medieval site of Sä…

Early medieval Italian Alps
In Early Middle Ages (sixth-eleventh centuries AD), South Tyrol (Italian Alps) played a key role for geographical and military reasons. Historical sources document that allochthonous groups (germani) entered the territory, and the material culture shows mutual cultural exchanges between autochthonous andgermani. Besides the nature of the migration, the demographic and socio-cultural impacts on the local population are still unknown. Stable isotop…

Evidence of probable subadult scurvy in the Early Medieval cemetery of Castel Tirolo, South Tyrol, Italy
The study of subadult scurvy (vitamin C deficiency), also known as Möller‐Barlow's disease, is of growing interest in palaeopathology. However, in Italy, there is still a paucity of knowledge on nutritional stress diseases in human skeletal remains. In the present work, the anthropological and palaeopathological study on subadults found in the Early Medieval cemetery of Castel Tirolo, in South Tyrol (Italy) is reported. Referring to the macroscop…
Morphologic-anthropological investigations in tomb K93.12 at Dra' Abu el-Naga (Western Thebes, Egypt
In this study we present the analysis of the human remains from tomb K93.12 in the Ancient Egyptian necropolis of Dra' Abu el-Naga, located opposite the modern city of Luxor in Upper Egypt on the western bank of the Nile. Archaeological findings indicate that the rock tomb was originally built in the early 18th dynasty. Remains of two tomb-temples of the 20th dynasty and the looted burial of the High Priest of Amun Amenhotep have been identified.…
