Biomechanics in Bioarchaeology
Biomechanical investigations in bioarchaeology have yielded key details about the physical behaviors undertaken by past populations. Interpretations rely on connecting morphology to loading patterns often based on observations in living participants. However, relationships between morphology and activity could be investigated among contemporary participants with greater diversity. Most research into how activities affect bone morphology focuses o…
Measurement Error in Osteometric, Photographic, and Virtual Methodologies to Quantify the Torsional Profile of the Lower Limb
Assessing Virtual Anthropometric Measurements and Quantifying Their Relationship to Osteometric Measurements Using Computed Tomography Scans From an Online Database
Anthropometric Measurements Amongst Contemporary Deceased Adults From New Mexico Vary in Relation to Childhood Socioeconomic Status
Intraindividual variation in the cross‐sectional geometry of the first metatarsal, femur, and tibia
Working with and for Ancestors
Small body size phenotypes among Middle and Later Stone Age Southern Africans
Diet and adult age‐at‐death among mobile foragers
Objectives The research explores whether the combined study of cortical bone histology, bone morphology, and dietary stable isotopes can expand insights into past human health and adaptations, particularly dietary sufficiency and life span. Materials and methods Midthoracic rib cortices from 54 South African Late Holocene adult skeletons (28 M, 24 F, two sex undetermined) are assessed by transmitted‐light microscopy for cross‐sectional area measu…
The bioarchaeology of mid-Holocene pastoralist cemeteries west of Lake Turkana, Kenya
Early herders in eastern Africa built elaborate megalithic cemeteries ~ 5000 BP overlooking what is now Lake Turkana in northwestern Kenya. At least six 'pillar sites' were constructed during a time of rapid change: cattle, sheep, and goats were introduced to the basin as the lake was shrinking at the end of the African Humid Period. Cultural changes at this time include new lithic and ceramic technologies and the earliest monumentality in easter…
Biomechanics, Habitual Activity, and Resilience among Southern African Hunter-Gatherers and Herders
The Riet River sites
Examining the influence of hide processing on Native American upper limb morphology
The commercial pelt trade between Native Americans and Europeans flourished in the 17th and 18th centuries. However, the impact of this economic change and increased hide processing efforts on Native American upper limb morphology is unknown. The hide scraping hypothesis, tested in living subjects, suggests that hide processing efforts may lead to significant changes in humeral morphology. Two modern human Native North American skeletal collectio…
