Grave Reverberations
Using the theory of reverberations, we track the dissonant transformation of sanitation regimes during the American colonial period in the Philippines, particularly during the cholera epidemic of 1902, to the mis/management of the COVID-19 pandemic in the present day. We argue that the formation, interpretation, and implementation of public health policies, especially with regards to the treatment of the dead, echo inherited colonial logics desig…
Pioneers of Color
Popular renditions on the history of forensic anthropology have traced the discipline's roots back to early European anatomy and nineteenth to twentieth-century American research and applications to the legal system, often highlighting the works of several recurring figures. These forebearers are overwhelmingly composed of white men to the exclusion of, as we argue here, pioneers of color. As a counter to prevailing Eurocentric narratives, we pre…
Barriers to entry and success in forensic anthropology
On Weird Anthropologists and Their White Skeletons
Most forensic anthropologists and the populations they study are WEIRD-that is, Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic. In their interventions into the WEIRD, Clancy and Davis (2019) contend that WEIRD is a euphemism for white and that it is the white, Western European-derived scientists and subjects that skew the predominating narrative of the human condition. While they demonstrate how biological anthropology can decenter the W…
Morphoscopic ancestry estimates in Filipino crania using multivariate probit regression models
OBJECTIVES: Probit has not been applied to ancestry estimation in forensic anthropology. The goals of this study were to: (1) evaluate the performance of probit analysis as a classification tool for ancestry estimation using ordinal data and (2) expand our current understanding of human cranial variation for an understudied population. METHODS: Multivariate probit models were used to classify the ancestral affiliation of Filipino crania using mor…
Advances in Forensic Anthropological Research in East and Southeast Asia
Diversity has been a central focus within anthropology since its disciplinary origins. In forensic anthropology this has come to include understanding the wide range of physical variation present in the human species across the spectra of geographies, generations, life stages, sexes, and different lived experiences for the purposes of estimating group membership and identification. Research has particularly flourished in the Americas and Europe l…
Classification Trends among Contemporary Filipino Crania Using Fordisc 3.1
Filipinos represent a significant contemporary demographic group globally, yet they are underrepresented in the forensic anthropological literature. Given the complex population history of the Philippines, it is important to ensure that traditional methods for assessing the biological profile are appropriate when applied to these peoples. Here we analyze the classification trends of a modern Filipino sample (n = 110) when using the Fordisc 3.1 (F…
An Admixture Approach to Trihybrid Ancestry Variation in the Philippines with Implications for Forensic Anthropology
In this study, we investigated, for the fijirst time from a forensic anthropological perspective, the question of mixed ancestry estimation for modern Filipinos with geographic origins in the Philippines. We derived estimates of continental ancestry using craniometrics from four sources: a new documented collection of current forensic signifijicance from the Manila North Cemetery; the Howells cranial series representing a sample of unclaimed indi…
A Case of Human Bone Modification by Ants (Hymenoptera)
Members of several insect orders are known to modify osseous vertebrate remains postmortem, whether for nutritional or habitational purposes. Recognizing the appearance of these taphonomic traces is important in the evaluation of skeletal remains recovered from forensic and archaeological contexts. Thus far, ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) have only been anecdotally noted in the literature to modify bone as a presumed food resource and have not ye…
