Considering care
OBJECTIVE: This article explores the potential care provided to a middle-aged man who had a suite of injuries evident in his skeleton, most notably an obturator fracture dislocation in his left hip. MATERIALS: The skeleton derived from the Late Medieval Gaelic population buried at Ballyhanna, Co. Donegal, Ireland. METHODS: A transdisciplinary bioarchaeology of care approach was adopted to undertake a phenomenological study of an individual with a…
The Face of Battle? Debating Arrow Trauma on Medieval Human Remains From Princesshay, Exeter
Physical evidence of weapon trauma in medieval burials is unusual, and evidence for trauma caused by arrowheads is exceptionally rare. Where high frequencies of traumatic injuries have been identified, this is mainly in contexts related to battles; it is much less common in normative burials. Osteological analysis of one context from an assemblage of disarticulated and commingled human bones recovered from a cemetery associated with the thirteent…
A Comparison of Radiological and Palaeopathological Diagnostic Criteria for Hyperostosis Frontalis Interna
Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a common clinical finding in post-menopausal women, less often in men. The characteristic billowing symmetrical new bone formation is found on the endocranial surface of the skull and rarely causes any significant symptoms. In clinical medicine HFI is diagnosed from its X-ray appearance, whereas in palaeopathology it is diagnosed by direct observation of the skull. There are no standard palaeopathological c…

Erosive osteoarthritis in a medieval skeleton
In human skeletons from archaeological sites, osteoarthritis is by far the most common disease found, but no case of erosive osteoarthritis has been described and we present here what we believe to be the first such case
