Hidden Insights: Comprehensive Radiological Analysis of Four Skeletal Populations From 13th–19th Century Southern Finland Reveals Neoplastic and Other Lesions Invisible on Bone Surfaces

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 196-206, January/February 2026.

In this study, we show that eggs laid in salt marsh habitats develop similarly to those laid in beach habitats, suggesting that salt marshes are viable spawning habitats for horseshoe crabs ...
