Microstructural findings on prenatally formed dental enamel support the assumption of an Iron age twin burial from Germany
Is the promontory a promising site to diagnose otitis media in paleopathology? A search for evidence
Canine dimensions for estimation of sex in adult and non-adult individuals with external validation by aDNA
Using discriminant functions obtained from canine dimensions for sex estimation in human skeletons has frequently been proposed as a promising approach within assemblages, even when used in non-adult individuals. However, applicability of this method to adult and non-adult individuals from other assemblages was rarely investigated, probably due to frequently observed inter-population differences in tooth dimensions. In the present study, discrimi…
Histomorphological study on hypocellularity in mastoid processes from archaeological human skeletons
Secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in a male from the Early Medieval settlement of Lauchheim, Germany
Did the assumed partial skeleton LB1 (aka Homo floresiensis) really have long feet
.
Odontometric sex estimation in humans using measurements on permanent canines. A comparison of an early Neolithic and an early medieval assemblage from Germany
This study analyzed whether cervical canine dimensions measured at the enamel-cement junction can provide a basis for sex estimation in human skeletal remains and whether discriminant functions developed for one assemblage can be successfully applied also to others. Cervical canine dimensions were recorded for an Early Neolithic (Linear Pottery Culture) and an early medieval skeletal assemblage from Germany. Only individuals in whom sex estimatio…
Human Remains From a Bronze Age Site in the Tollense Valley
Flint arrowhead embedded in a human humerus from the Bronze Age site in the Tollense valley, Germany – A high-resolution micro-CT study to distinguish antemortem from perimortem projectile trauma to b…
Diagnosis of stapedial footplate fixation in archaeological human remains
Healed fracture of the tibia in a bison (Bison menneri ) from the late Early Pleistocene site of Untermassfeld (Thuringia, Germany)
Mastoiditis—Paleopathological evidence of a rarely reported disease
Since antibiotics have become available, mastoiditis has become a rare disease in modern Western societies. However, it is still common in developing countries. It can be hypothesized that in earlier historical and prehistoric times, mastoiditis must have posed a serious threat to people's lives, and that the prevalence of this disease is probably underrepresented in the paleopathological literature. The present study identifies pathological chan…
Differential diagnosis of mastoid hypocellularity in human skeletal remains
Mastoid hypocellularity is frequently used as an indicator of chronic otits media in paleopathological investigations. The condition can be caused by a poor development of air cells during infancy and early childhood (primary hypocellularity) or by obliteration of air cells with bone during later life (secondary hypocellularity). We performed a macroscopic, radiographic, and microscopic study of pneumatization patterns in 151 mastoid processes of…
The lost "pleistocene" hominid remains of Weißenthurm, District Mayen-Koblenz
The landscape at central Rhine and Mosel is one of the most famous archaeological sites in middle Europe. A layer of pumicetufa from the eruption of the lake Laacher volcano 13,000 years B.P. is an important mark which approximately divides the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic period. Although numerous excavations in this area have been carried out, quaternary hominid remains are quite rare. A few short notes from the early 1920s reports of human bone…
Multiple pathologies of a Merowingian individual from a graveyard in Insheim (Rhineland-Palatinate)
