Statistical classification methods for estimating sex based on five skull traits
century Korean autopsy cadavers were evaluated using the ordinal scoring system of five cranial nonmetric traits as outlined in Buikstra & Ubelaker (1994). All scores of each trait were analyzed by linear discriminant and decision tree analyses for sex estimation. The frequency of each trait was analyzed and compared to populations from other studies. The accuracy for both sexes was 88.1% by discriminant analysis and 90.4% by decision tree. The t…
Post-factum autopsy to confirm cardiac structures visible on computed tomography images of Korean mummies
autopsy also has value as a complementary and confirmatory analysis for enhanced accuracy of diagnoses in paleo-radiological studies.
Paleopathological Patterns of Degenerative Arthropathy
This study was performed to assess degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) in human skeletons from 15th to 19th century Joseon tombs of South Korea. The researchers performed anthropological examinations of OA in selected limb joints of Joseon skeletons and considered possible reasons for the revealed aspects of OA by focusing on lifestyle or occupational activity during that time. A total of 140 skeletons unearthed from Joseon tombs were evaluated and …
Anthropological Study on the Cremated Bones of the Late Silla Kingdom Period in Korean History
Anthropological studies on burnt bones revealed patterns by which the nature of archaeological cremation cases can be hypothesized. However, there have been very few histological analyses performed on cremated bones obtained from archaeological sites in East Asia. The researchers, therefore, endeavored to isolate the heat-induced changes in Late Silla Kingdom bones that probably had been subjected to post-mortem cremation. When the researchers ex…
Anthropological Age Estimation with Bone Histomorphometry from the Human Clavicle
The purpose of present study was to apply histomorphometry to estimate the age at death using the clavicular osteonal remodeling rate and to develop an age-predicting equation. 46 clavicular samples consisting 28 males and 18 females were obtained from Korean cadavers. Two sequential 1-mm-thick sections, were prepared using a diamond wheel, and a 100 um-thick section was then made by manual grinding with polarizing filter optical microscopy. Thre…

Collaboration of Archaeologists, Historians and Bioarchaeologists During Removal of Clothing from Korean Mummy of Joseon Dynasty
Evidence of Periostitis in Joseon Dynasty Skeletons
Periostitis is one of the human diseases commonly encountered in archaeological samples. It is known to be an important health indicator for paleopathologists examining skeletal remains. In our recent study on a Joseon skeletal series (n=101), non-specific, primary periostitis was observed only in five individuals (#4, #29, #137, #175, and #290). Notably, there were no secondary periostitis-suggestive signs (e.g. syphilis), except for those cause…
Amplification of DNA Remnants in Mummified Human Brains from Medieval Joseon Tombs of Korea
Recently, a number of mummified brains obtained from the remains of medieval Joseon Koreans have been subjected to biological investigations. Although the morphology of the organs had been perfectly maintained on gross examination, we still do not know how well biomolecules such as DNA were preserved. In the present study, the preservation status of remnant DNA in mummified brain tissue was determined by means of comparisons with corresponding DN…
Histomorphometric Assessment of Bilaterality from the Cadaveric Femurs
The aim of the present study was to assess bilateral differences in the histomorphometry with osteonal remodeling rate of the femur, which has potential implications for methods of age estimation. Thirty-three femoral samples (18 males and 15 females) were obtained from Korean cadavers and used to analyze the histomorphometric parameters. The thin sections (< 100 mm thick) were prepared by manual grinding. Most of the parameters showed no signifi…
