Paleopathology of ancient Nubian human bone studied by chemical and electron microscopic methods
Tanner‐Whitehouse and Greulich‐Pyle skeletal age velocity comparisons
Longitudinal velocity measurements of Tanner‐Whitehouse (TW) and Greulich‐Pyle (GP) skeletal ages have been determined for 233 Hong Kong Chinese orphanage children. When skeletal age is compared to chronological age (CA) the resulting ratio TW/CA or GP/CA has been titled a Tanner. Tanner values range from 0.74 to 1.26 for the GP/CA calculations and from 0.73 to 1.45 for the TW/CA calculations. The mean Tanner value was much higher for TW velociti…
Ancient Nubian human bone: A chemical and ultrastructural characterization including collagen
Human bone 14,000 years of age from the Egyptian Nubian Desert has shown ultrastructural preservation of fossilized fibers with a periodicity of 600 Å. Intact Haversian systems were retained, but hydroxyproline and nitrogen contents were negligible. The fluorine content was markedly elevated. The complex chemical process of fossilization which resulted in retention of gross and micromorphology was examined and indicated the loss of organic materi…
Archaeology and Physical Anthropology: Means to the Same End
Both archaeology and physical anthropology have often suffered from the same malaise. Techniques have been confused with goals and emphasis has be·en placed upon theaccumulation of data rather than upon an understanding of human behavior. Notes* An earlier version of this paper was read at the Annual Meeting of the Texas Archaeological Society, Dallas, Texas, November 6, 1965
The Skeleton in the Physical Anthropology Closet
The “new” and “newer” concepts of physical anthropology are oriented to biochemical, genetic and evolutionary studies. While theseareneededand welcome concepts, they often slight the basic tools of anthropometry and typology. Also, the new and newer physical anthropology tends to separate biological factors from their cultural contexts. The writer discusses several questions posed by this shift in emphasis and suggests that the lack of a function…
The amount and distribution of subcutaneous tissue in Southern Chinese children from Hong Kong
Skinfold thicknesses were measured with a Harpenden caliper on four body regions (triceps, calf, subscapular, and supra‐iliac) of 3,975 boys and 3,903 girls of Southern Chinese origin, from 6 to 18 years of age, in Hong Kong. The subjects were classified into high, middle, and low socio‐economic groups. Norms of skinfold thicknesses of the four body regions were obtained for each age level. On all dimensions, the girls are significantly larger th…
