Revealing Developmental Transitions in Perinatal and Infant Individuals Through Microanatomical Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Hum Biol
ABSTRACT Objectives Identifying signs of birth in perinatal human remains of past populations is challenging due to the lack of direct markers of this event on bones. This research aims to identify distinct events in humeral cross‐sections microanatomy related to perinatal development and to integrate the findings into infant mortality trends. Material

Grouping groupers in the Mediterranean: Ecological baselines revealed by ancient proteins

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Groupers (Epinephelidae) are key species for fisheries in the Mediterranean which have been heavily overfished. Species abundance and distribution prior to the 20th century in the Mediterranean remains poorly known. By using Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry (ZooMS) and reconstructing collagen sequences, we discovered and validated 22 biomarkers for ...

Running, jumping, hunting, and scavenging: Functional analysis of vertebral mobility and backbone properties in carnivorans. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anat
Intervertebral mobility and backbone properties were studied in 34 species of terrestrial carnivorans. Carnivorans that seize prey with their jaws (canids and hyaenids) are characterized by a significantly elongated neck and increased vertebral mobility in the sagittal and horizontal planes.

An osteometric analysis of elk (Cervus elaphus manitobensis) from Great Smoky Mountains National Park

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 900-909, September/October 2023., 2023
Abstract Teeth are commonly preserved in the zooarchaeological record and can be used to estimate the age of individuals in a faunal assemblage. However, there are currently no criteria for discerning the sex of elk based on dental metric characteristics. Here, we present the results of an osteometric analysis of modern elk (Cervus elaphus manitobensis)
