Musculoskeletal evidence for activity
The evaluation of muscle insertions on the humerus, by measurement or by subjective scoring, is discussed. Two archaeological groups, the burials from the Mary Rose and those from a medieval parish cemetery are evaluated, together with a modern X-ray sample of divers, and a method of relating muscles scores to X-ray measurements is tested, with mixed results. These results support other research on the humerus for the men from the Mary Rose, sugg…

Care in the Medieval community
Evidence from a Medieval parish cemetery in Norwich, England, suggests the presence of a caring, supportive community. As well as episodes of healed trauma and the presence of chronic infectious disease, two severely disabled individuals survived into adulthood. Number 439 (presented at Göttingen in 1994 and extensively discussed since) was at first thought to be suffering from a dysplasia. The general consensus now, however, suggests a juvenile …

Asymmetry and activity-related change in the male humerus
Some previous studies of activity-related change in the human skeleton have been of doubtful validity because specific changes have been related to particular tasks. Claims to establish such relationships have often concentrated on the development of entheses. Such work is marred by the incorrect assumption that muscles work in isolation in the performance of a single activity. In addition, normal skeletal asymmetry is often ignored, as is age an…
