A Fully Bayesian Approach to Adult Skeletal Age Estimation: Multivariate Latent Trait Modeling With Markov Chain Monte Carlo Sampling

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ordered probit regression is used as a latent trait model, with age at death estimated from a Gompertz distribution. Combined with Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, this approach eliminates the need for reference priors for transition ages or population parameters.

Biopower, Necropolitics, and the Afterlives of Infants: Uncovering the Ethics of Historical Anatomical Collections

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many fetuses and infants were collected for anatomical study. Yet little research has explored their origins or the ethical implications of holding and using these individuals in teaching and research.

Investigating Associations Between Developmental Integration and Physiological Stress

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Integration, or patterns of correlation between structural elements, is of interest in diverse fields. Analysis is, however, generally limited to group‐level comparisons. This paper presents a novel combination of methods to quantify developmental integration (i.e., patterns of covariation which arise during growth) so that a ...

Rib Cross‐Sectional Mineralized Area in Early Pleistocene Hominins: Insights From the Homo antecessor and H. erectus s. l. Fossil Record

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Rib cross‐sectional mineralized area provides valuable insights into mechanical loading and bone growth and remodeling. Given the scarcity of Early Pleistocene costal remains in the context of human evolution, we aimed to study the cross‐sectional anatomy of fossil ribs from that period and compare them to a modern human ontogenetic

The Winthir Collection: An Identified Historical Skeletal Series From Munich, Germany

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACTDocumented skeletal collections that can be linked to individual life‐history information remain critical resources for bioarchaeological research, yet nonmodern identified series are still rare in Central Europe. We present the Winthir Collection, a late‐19th‐century skeletal assemblage from Munich, Germany, comprising 245 identified ...
