Hidden Insights
This study aims to identify lesions confined to the internal structures of bones. A radiographic analysis was performed on 219 archaeological, historical period skeletons from southern Finland. Although the study examines nearly all preserved skeletal elements using plain radiographs, it does not incorporate computed tomography. Notably, 17 individuals (7.8%) were preliminarily diagnosed with neoplastic lesions. The 7.8% prevalence of neoplasia i…
Challenges of Ancient DNA Preservation in Finland
Ancient DNA (aDNA) research has rapidly expanded our understanding of past populations, yet its success remains highly dependent on biomolecular preservation. This article presents negative sampling outcomes from 85 individuals in Finland, sampled between 2017 and 2022. These individuals represent sampling efforts that failed to yield data for human population genetic analyses, corresponding to a success rate of approximately 44%. The failed data…
Graves, landmarks, or sacrificial monuments? The human osteology and paleopathology of the Bronze Age burial cairns in Finland
During the Bronze Age (BA; ca. 1800–500 BC), cremation became the dominant burial practice in Finland. These BA cremations have been excavated from burial cairns in Finland for more than 150 years. This work provides new information on human osteology from this previously understudied area in northeastern Europe. The results cover the earliest period in Finnish prehistory for which large‐scale human osteological assemblages are available. In this…
Isotopic insights into the early Medieval (600–1100 CE) diet in the Luistari cemetery at Eura, Finland
In this article, we present the results of an isotopic study of diet for the early medieval (Merovingian, Viking, Early Christian) humans buried in the unique Luistari cemetery at Eura (ca. 600–1400 CE), southwestern Finland, the largest cemetery of the region. Isotope analysis was conducted on 37 humans for dentine and bone collagen (δ 13 C, δ 15 N, and δ 34 S), and five of them were also studied using compound-specific nitrogen isotope analysis…
Stature and body mass estimation from skeletal remains in the European Holocene
Techniques that are currently available for estimating stature and body mass from European skeletal remains are all subject to various limitations. Here, we develop new prediction equations based on large skeletal samples representing much of the continent and temporal periods ranging from the Mesolithic to the 20th century. Anatomical reconstruction of stature is carried out for 501 individuals, and body mass is calculated from estimated stature…
