Digital technologies are an increasingly pervasive medium for zooarchaeological
scholarship, providing a means to document and preserve fragile zooarchaeological …

Reconstructions of habitual activity in past populations and extinct human groups is a
primary goal of paleoanthropological research. Muscle attachment scars (entheses) are …

Objectives The presence of a gendered subdivision of labor has been bioarchaeologically
investigated in various prehistoric and historical contexts. Little is known, however, about the …

In anthropological sciences, the areas of the bones where muscles or ligaments attach
(“entheses” or “muscle attachments”) are routinely used for reconstructing habitual physical …

The concept of robusticity is widely used in palaeoanthropological and bioarchaeological
studies. Distinct skeletal structures are described as robust. Many specialists and non …

Objectives The present study tests the effectiveness of entheseal robusticity (ER) as a
potential predictor of adult age‐at‐death by applying multiple regression models to a large …

Using cross-sectional geometry (CSG), entheseal changes (ECs), and presence of external
auditory meatus exostosis (EAE), this study tests the hypothesis—based on isotopic and …

The present study aims to investigate the relationship between physical activity changes and
the daily life patterns in the island of La Gomera (Canary Islands, Spain) during the …

Objectives We studied the sex differences in the distribution of entheseal changes (EC) in an
archeological population through a Bayesian approach that allows incorporating existing …

Until the early 5th century BC, Phaleron Bay was the main port of ancient Athens (Greece).
On its shore, archaeologists have discovered one of the largest known cemeteries in ancient …
