Growing Up at Villamagna
This study examines the interplay between sex, gender, and child-rearing using multiple markers of skeletal growthand health in the late-medieval central Italian population of Villamagna. To reflect the complexity of growth and heterogeneity of the skeleton, we used a multi-method approach: vertebral neural canal dimensions (n = 65), cribra orbitalia (n = 66), porotic hyperostosis (n = 73), linear enamel hypoplasia (n = 51), and terminal adult st…

Economic access influences degenerative spine disease outcomes at rural Late Medieval Villamagna (Lazio, IT )
OBJECTIVES: Degenerative joint disease in the spine is heavily influenced by genetic, environmental, and epigenetic factors, as well as exacerbated by physical activity and injury. The objective of this study was to investigate the multivariate relationship between known predictors of degenerative joint disease in the spine, such as age and sex, with mortuary indicators of economic access such as grave inclusions, burial location, and burial type…
Interpreting mortuary treatment from histological bone diagenesis
This study examines the evidence for differential mortuary practices at the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük, in Anatolia, Turkey, using the histological examination of bacterial microbioerosion in archaeological human bone. In order to analyse bacterial microbioerosion, thin sections were prepared from the midshaft of thoracic ribs 6-8, of n = 162 individuals (adults and juveniles) and analysed using qualitative analysis of microscopic focal destruc…
Making sense of medieval mouths
OBJECTIVES: Bioarchaeological investigations of sex-based differences in the prevalence of dental pathological lesions, particularly caries, have drawn considerable attention, and out of this work, two dominant models have emerged. Traditionally, the first model interprets sex-related patterns in caries as a product of gendered differences in diet. A more recent model interprets a generally higher propensity for caries prevalence in females in li…
A multi‐method assessment of bone maintenance and loss in an I mperial R oman population
OBJECTIVES: One of the hallmarks of contemporary osteoporosis and bone loss is dramatically higher prevalence of loss and fragility in females post-menopause. In contrast, bioarchaeological studies of bone loss have found a greater diversity of age- and sex-related patterns of bone loss in past populations. We argue that the differing findings may relate to the fact that most studies use only a single methodology to quantify bone loss and do not …

Age-Related Cortical Bone Maintenance and Loss in an Imperial Roman Population
This article explores age- and sex-related patterns of cortical bone loss, assessed by radiogrammetry of the second metacarpal, from a skeletal sample excavated from the Imperial Roman port city of Velia (1st and 2nd century ad), to contribute to our understanding of health and disease during the Imperial period. Patterns of age- and sex-related bone loss and health at Velia are also compared with other historical samples and to modern clinical d…

l]deas awaken one another, and they awaken one another because they have always been connected" -Diderot, The Dream of D'Alembert A great deal of anthropological practice revolves around the comparison of human similarities and differences. The predominance of comparisons in anthropology, particularly in archaeology and physical anthropology, places analogy at the forefront of anthropological theory and practice My attention was drawn to this top…
A test of the revised Frost's 'rapid manual method' for the preparation of bone thin sections
A recent publication by Maat et al. (2001) introduces a modification of Frost's earlier ‘rapid manual method’ for ground bone thin section preparations, which uses ‘surface embedding’ with cyanoacrylate for sample protection. This revised method is said to provide a quick, inexpensive system for producing thin sections from archaeological specimens with a finished quality equivalent to more involved and equipment-intensive methods. Our study cond…
