Marginalised Populations in the Ancient Greek World: The Bioarchaeology of the Other
Studies of the ancient Greek world have typically focused on the life histories of elite males as the group that has made the most distinct mark on ancient Greek literature, art and material culture. As a result, the voices of foreigners, the physically impaired, the impoverished and the generally disenfranchised have been silent, which has substantially complicated the creation of a historical narrative of these marginalised groups. To address t…

Explores literary, visual, material and biological evidence of marginality in the ancient Greek world Provides the first comprehensive and contextual treatment of the biological evidence for marginality in the ancient Greek world Argues that intersectionality was the driving factor behind social marginalisation in the Late Archaic/Classical Greek world Considers social marginalisation from the vantage point of mortuary evidence Studies of the anc…
The Ancient Art of Transformation: Case Studies from Mediterranean Contexts
An analysis of Byzantine burials from Hacımusalar Höyük (Turkey)
The contents of 118 inhumation burials (seventh to 12th century AD) excavated at Hacımusalar Höyük (ancient Choma) were studied in order to reconstruct the Byzantine population. Overall, the sample is similar to that of other Byzantine populations: burial customs appear typical of contemporary practices, children are overrepresented, males and females are represented roughly equally and heights fall within the average range calculated for Byzanti…
Bioarchaeology of Classical Kamarina: Life and Death in Greek Sicily
Weaver explores the mortuary practices, health and disease, and even the magical beliefs of classical Kamarina using a comparative approach to analyze grave goods and burial positions
Probable Atretic Cephalocele in an Adult Female from Punta Secca (Sicily, Italy): Atretic Cephalocele in an Adult Female from Sicily
Excavations at Punta Secca, Sicily (Italy), in 2008 uncovered a substantially built tomb of ca ad 625/630 inside a private house and accompanying evidence for libations and funerary feasting in honour of the deceased. Inside the tomb were the skeletal remains of an adult female aged approximately 20/25 years and a child aged approximately 3/5 years. DNA analysis showed the child to be female and the adult and child to have been consanguineous. Ar…
