A New Astronomically Based Chronological Model for the Egyptian Old Kingdom
A recently discovered inscription on an ancient Egyptian ointment jar mentions the heliacal rising of Sirius. In the time of the early Pharaohs, this specific astronomical event marked the beginning of the Egyptian New Year and originally the annual return of the Nile flood, making it of great ritual importance. Since the Egyptian civil calendar of 365 days permanently shifted one day in four years in comparison to the stars due to the lack of in…
Ancient DNA Investigation of a Medieval German Cemetery Confirms Long-Term Stability of CCR5-Δ32 Allele Frequencies in Central Europe
The CCR5-Δ32 mutation present in European populations is among the most prominently debated cases of recent positive selection in humans. This allele, a 32-bp deletion that renders the T-cell CCR5 receptor nonfunctional, has important epidemiological and public health significance, as homozygous carriers are resistant to several HIV strains. However, although the function of this allele in preventing HIV infection is now well described, its human…
Year old β‐thalassemia case in Sardinia suggests malaria was endemic by the Roman period
OBJECTIVES: The island of Sardinia has one of the highest incidence rates of β-thalassemia in Europe due to its long history of endemic malaria, which, according to historical records, was introduced around 2,600 years ago by the Punics and only became endemic around the Middle Ages. In particular, the cod39 mutation is responsible for more than 95% of all β-thalassemia cases observed on the island. Debates surround the origin of the mutation. So…

CT-Osteoabsorptiometry (CT-OAM) - a new investigation technique in the field of mummy research
With help of CT-OAM pathological load distributions can be visualized before macroscopical changes appear and the information obtained can be useful to solve paleopathological and paleoarchaeological questions.
Identifications of ancient E gyptian royal mummies from the 18th Dynasty reconsidered
For centuries, ancient Egyptian Royal mummies have drawn the attention both of the general public and scientists. Many royal mummies from the New Kingdom have survived. The discoveries of the bodies of these ancient rulers have always sparked much attention, yet not all identifications are clear even nowadays. This study presents a meta-analysis to demonstrate the difficulties in identifying ancient Egyptian royal mummies. Various methods and pit…
Body height of mummified pharaohs supports historical suggestions of sibling marriages
Body height is an important factor in reconstructing health conditions and it serves as an indicator of socio‐economic status. Researchers rely on ancient data to analyze evolutionary aspects of human health and its interrelation with environmental influences. This study presents body height estimates from all periods of ancient Egyptian history and compares the general population with the existing mummies of the members of royal families. A samp…
Lessons From History of Socioeconomic Improvements
This study investigated the trends in tuberculosis mortality through time in Switzerland. Information on the decline in mortality before chemotherapies were introduced may be useful in developing countries where drug-resistant tuberculosis is now becoming a major problem. Swiss data were collected from historical records and comparative data were obtained from the literature for England and Wales, New York, Japan, Brazil and Sierra Leone. Logisti…

Pathogens and host immunity in the ancient human oral cavity
A unique case of perforated bilateral parietal bone thinning in a Third Intermediate Period Egyptian mummy (Geneva Museum D 0242)
Since the early nineteenth century, the Museum of Art and History in Geneva has held the mummy of the Lady Tjes-Mut-peret with her coffin (Third Intermediate Period). The mummy was unwrapped in 1824 and the detailed description of this operation mentions several pathological findings. A CT scan was performed in the University Hospital in Geneva in 2011 allowing for the findings of 1824 to be reinterpreted and complemented by the diagnosis of a bi…
Skeletal robustness and bone strength as measured by anthropometry and ultrasonography as a function of physical activity in young adults
BACKGROUND: During the last 10 years, skeletal robustness in children has generally decreased. The reasons for this phenomenon, as well as its outcomes, are undetermined so far. AIM: The present study explores the association between anthropometric skeletal measurements, bone quality measurements, and physical activity in young adults. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: 118 German young men (N = 68; 19-25 years old) and women (N = 50; 19-24 years old) were in…
From left-skewness to symmetry
The relatively strong left-skewness during the late 19th and early 20th centuries may have been due to the interaction of a number of causes, chiefly malnutrition, a wider range in physical development at age 19 and widespread iodine deficiency
Intraskeletal isotopic compositions (δ 13 C, δ 15 N) of bone collagen
Paleodiet research traditionally interprets differences in collagen isotopic compositions (δ 13 C, δ 15 N) as indicators of dietary distinction even though physiological processes likely play some role in creating variation. This research investigates the degree to which bone collagen δ 13 C and δ 15 N values normally vary within the skeleton and examines the influence of several diseases common to ancient populations on these isotopic compositio…
Health Is not always written in bone
Paleopathology has revealed much about disease in the past but is usually limited to conditions with osteological manifestations; this often excludes acute soft tissue infections and causes of death for most individuals in the past and present. Our understanding of the evolution of disease is essential for contextualizing and predicting the epidemiological shifts that are happening in modern society, as high rates of infectious disease coexist al…

Secular Trends in Tuberculosis during the Second Epidemiological Transition
The second epidemiologic transition is defined as “the age of receding pandemics”, wherein mortality declines, life expectancy increases, and population growth occurs. The major causes of death also shifted from predominantly acute infectious diseases to degenerative and “man-made” diseases (Omran, 1983). The aim of this study was to determine the timing of the transition in Zürich (Switzerland) and to investigate patterns of tuberculosis mortali…
Diversity in auxology
Auxology has developed from mere describing child and adolescent growth into a vivid and interdisciplinary research area encompassing human biologists, physicians, social scientists, economists and biostatisticians. The meeting illustrated the diversity in auxology, with the various social, medical, biological and biostatistical aspects in studies on child growth and development.
Harris lines revisited
Objectives: The occurrence of transverse radiopaque lines in long bones—Harris lines (HLs)—is correlated with episodes of temporary arrest of longitudinal growth and has been used as an indicator of health and nutritional status of modern and historical populations. However, the interpretation of HLs as a stress indicator remains debatable. The aim of this article is to evaluate the perspectives and the limitations of HLs analyses and to examine …
Edouard Mallet's early and almost forgotten study of the average height of Genevan conscripts in 1835
Growth variation, final height and secular trend. Proceedings of the 17th Aschauer Soiree, 7th November 2009
Charlemagne was very tall, but not robust
Technical note
Ancient mummified soft‐tissues are a unique source to study the evolution of disease. Diagnostic imaging of such historic tissues is of foremost interest in paleoanthropology or paleopathology, with conventional x‐ray and computed tomography (CT) being the gold‐standard. Longer wavelength radiation in the far‐infrared or Terahertz region allows diagnostic close‐to‐surface tissue differentiation of bone morphology while being harmless to human cel…
Diagnostic morphometric applicability of confocal laser scanning microscopy in Osteoarchaeology
The confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) has become an essential tool for a wide range of biological and clinical studies and imaging applications. The major imaging modes of the CLSM include single and serial optical sections from thick specimens (100 μm), multiple wavelength images and three-dimensional reconstruction. Such images provide measurement of length, surface or volume of objects. Surprisingly, this advanced microscopic method ha…
Osseous talocalcaneal coalition in a medieval skeleton (ca. 1050 AD)
Tarsal coalition (TC) is defined as an abnormal fusion of two or more tarsal bones. The fusion may be fibrous, cartilaginous or osseous and can be congenital or acquired in response to infection, articular disorders, trauma, neoplasm or surgery. We report a case of a talocalcaneal (TCC) type of tarsal coalition in a medieval skeleton from Northwest Germany dating to ca. 1050 AD. The fusion is of osseous type. Plain AP radiographs and computed tom…

Isotopic anthropology of rural German medieval diet
This study investigates the diet of an eleventh century CE parish community located in northwestern Germany. We assessed the isotopic compositions of human (n = 24) and faunal (n = 17) bone collagen (δ13Ccol, δ15Ncol) and human structural carbonate (δ13Csc) using skeletal material recovered from the Dalheim cemetery. Traditional interpretation of the isotopic data indicates that Dalheimresidents likely relied on a C3 plant-based diet and consumed…

Variability of height, weight, and body mass index in a Swiss armed forces 2005 census
The influence of the environment and genetics on individual biological characteristics, such as body mass and stature is well known. Many studies of these relationships have been based on conscript data. These studies often suffer from the fact that their data cover only a part of the population. Characterized by prosperity, democratic stability and enormous micro‐regional cultural diversity, Switzerland is in the unique situation of offering dat…
Diagnostic value of micro‐CT in comparison with histology in the qualitative assessment of historical human skull bone pathologies
Cases of pathologically changed bone might constitute a diagnostic pitfall and frequently need histological methods to be etiologically properly evaluated. With micro‐computed tomography (μCT), a new epoch of 2D and 3D imaging has been launched. We evaluated the diagnostic investigation of this analytical method versus well established histological investigations of historical human bone. Pathological changes due to various etiologies (infectious…
Brief communication
The aim of this article is to briefly present the Galler Collection, a little‐known historic Swiss bone reference series of high value for paleopathological research. The Galler Collection consists of approximately 600 mostly dry‐bone specimens of many major bone diseases dating from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Clinical information and autopsy reports are available for the majority of specimens. Rarely documented conditions represente…
Technical note
Arrest in long bone growth and the subsequent resumption of growth may be visible as radiopaque transverse lines in radiographs (Harris lines, HL; Harris, HA. 1933. Bone growth in health and disease. London: Oxford University Press). The assessment of individual age at occurrence of such lines, as part of paleopathological skeletal studies, is time‐consuming and shows large intra‐ and interobserver variability. Thus, a standardized, automated det…
Paleopathologies of the Vertebral Column in Medieval Skeletons
Paleopathological data provide valuable information about health, longevity and mortality in earlier human populations. We investigated the incidence of spinal pathologies on 54 individuals (1045 vertebrae and 18 sacral bones) that belong to a medieval skeletal series discovered in the Dalheim monastery (Northwest Germany) and compared them with contemporary and recent populations. The skeletons were analyzed with anthropological methods (sex and…

Human osseous intervertebral foramen width
Alterations of the width of the human intervertebral foramen can play a pathophysiological role in low back pain. Osseous dimensions of the human intervertebral foramen are rarely recorded. Therefore, we present reference data obtained from skeletal samples of known lifestyle, population affinity, sex, and age at death. Cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae of functional transition zones of 71 macroscopically normal spines from early 19th cent…
State-of-the-art imaging in palaeopathology
Non-invasive imaging techniques are of great value in palaeopathology. Computed tomography (CT) is widely established to visualize changes in human remains that occurred both pre and post mortem. Since 1999 an advanced form of helical CT-so called Multislice-CT (MSCT)-has become available for clinical purposes. We now present for the first time three historic cranial lesions of doubtful aetiology visualized by MSCT. Both original images and virtu…
Salt Mining and Salt Miners at Talkherud–Douzlākh, Northwestern Iran
The Douzlākh salt deposit (region: Māhneshān, Zanjān Province, Iran) is unique for its pure and crystal rock salt and was an important supplier of culinary (‘table’) salt in Achaemenid, Sassanid and Middle Islamic times. At the same time, the site was of central importance to the economic life of the rural populations in the Talkherud Basin. This article focuses on the question of which strategies were decisive for the exploitation of the salt mo…
Ancient DNA Analysis of the Thulamela Remains
Ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis was employed to obtain information on the population relationships of the two Thulamela individuals ( AD 1400-1700) and six other skeletons from various archaeological sites of the southern African Iron Age – Tuli (Botswana), Nwanetsi, Makgope, Happy Rest and Stayt. Although sequences were short, it seems that the Thulamela female aligns somewhat more with eastern populations as opposed to the male who aligns more with…
Multifocal bone lesions in an ancient Egyptian child mummy
Queen Meresankh III – the oldest case of bilateral Silent Sinus Syndrome (c. 2620/10 - 2570 BC)
The silent sinus syndrome is characterized by painless enophthalmia and hypotropia caused by chronic atelectasis of the maxillary sinus with onset in adulthood, typically between the third and the fifth decade of life. It is increasingly diagnosed as a result of today’s widespread use of computed tomography (CT). The phenomenon was originally described in 1964 (Montgomery, 1964), while the term “silent sinus syndrome” was later introduced by Sopa…

Radiological aspects and interpretation of post‐mortem artefacts in ancient Egyptian mummies from Swiss collections
The process of embalming leads to various post-mortem artefacts in ancient Egyptian mummies. Its different radiological aspects and its interpretation (historical background and intention) are demonstrated by way of example on two mummies belonging to Swiss collections (Naturwissenschaftliche Sammlungen der Stadt Winterthur, Winterthur; Musée d'Ethnographie, Neuchâtel). The human remains date from 900 bc and 300 bc, respectively, and have—among o…
Skeletal clues apparently distinguishing Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia from multiple myeloma and leukemia
This study was conducted to characterize macroscopically and by conventional radiography the bony lesions in a case of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and to compare and contrast it with those of the other major hematologic lymphoproliferative disorders, multiple myeloma and leukemia. Two varieties of lytic skeletal lesions were found in Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. One was sharply defined, spheroid lesions with smooth borders and effaced/era…
Technical note
The aim of this paper was to demonstrate the application of computerized tomographic (CT)‐guided biopsy in a paleopathological examination. Researchers dealing with such special tasks should be aware of this method. We performed a CT‐guided percutaneous biopsy of an ancient Egyptian child mummy, which allowed us to revise its initial diagnosis. Based on this experience, extended preinterventional planning and the choice of equipment (needle type)…

Hyperostosis frontalis interna
Age-dependent changes of the normal human spine during adulthood
The impact of aging on the morphology of the osseous spine is still debated. Clinical studies usually record combined aging effects, as well as age-related degenerative changes. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of (degeneration-independent) aging on the morphology of the osseous human spine during adulthood. Various osseous dimensions of human spinal landmarks at all major vertebral levels have been assessed in macroscopically no…
Comparison of arthritis characteristics in lowland Gorilla gorilla and mountain Gorilla beringei
Gorilla gorilla and the less‐studied G. beringei occupy very different, geographically separate habitats. We studied the occurrence of various forms of arthritis to examine possible nature/nurture causality. The macerated skeletons of 38 G. beringei and 99 G. gorilla individuals were examined macroscopically for the presence of articular and osseous pathologies. Contrasting with only isolated osteoarthritis and infectious arthritis was the freque…
