Book Dental Anthropology

    Book Details:
  • Author : Kurt W. Alt
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 3709174961
  • Pages : 574 pages

Download or read book Dental Anthropology written by Kurt W. Alt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelley Saunders This book offers a welcome diversity of topics covering the broader subjects of teeth and the study of teeth by anthropologists. There is an impressive array of coverage here including the history of anthropological study of the teeth, morphology and structure, pathology and epidemiology, the relationship between nutrition, human behavior and the dentition, age and sex estimation from teeth, and geographic and genetic variation. Most chapter authors have provided thorough reviews of their subjects along with examples of recent analytical work and recommendations for future research. North American researchers should particularly appreciate the access to an extensive European literature cited in the individual chapter bibliographies. Physical anthropologists with even a passing interest in dental research should greet the publication of this book with pleasure since it adds to a growing list of books on how the study of teeth can tell us so much about past human populations. In addition to the archaeological applications, there is the forensic objective of dental anthropology which the editors refer to in their introduction which is dealt with in this volume. The chapters dealing with methods of sex determination, age estimation of juveniles and age estimation of adults using the teeth are exhaustive and exacting and of critical importance to both "osteoarchaeologists" and forensic anthropologists. Authors Liversidge, Herdeg and Rosing provide very clear guidelines for the use of dental formation standards in juvenile age estimation, recommendations that are so obviously necessary at this time.

Book Biological Anthropology of the Human Skeleton

Download or read book Biological Anthropology of the Human Skeleton written by M. Anne Katzenberg and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-23 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is virtually required reading for biological anthropologists and will be a useful, up-to-date primer on osteological analyses for a wider audience." —The Quarterly Review of Biology, March 2009 "... a comprehensive guide to the ever-changing discipline of physical anthropology... provides an in depth introduction to human skeletal biology. The structure of the book makes it easy for the reader to follow the progression of the field of human skeletal biology." —PaleoAnthropology, 2009 Issue The First Edition of Biological Anthropology of the Human Skeleton is the market-leading reference and textbook on the scientific analysis of human skeletal remains recovered from archaeological sites. Now, featuring scores of new or thoroughly revised content, this Second Edition provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the topic available. Like the previous edition, this Second Edition is organized into five parts with contributing chapters written by experts in the field of human skeletal biology: Part One covers theory and application; Part Two discusses morphological analyses of bone, teeth, and age changes; Part Three reviews prehistoric health and disease; Part Four examines chemical and genetic analysis of hard tissues; and Part Five closes with coverage of quantitative methods and population studies. Each chapter includes a review of recent studies, descriptions of analytical techniques and underlying assumptions, theory, methodological advances, and speculation about future research. New or thoroughly revised content includes: Techniques in the analysis of human skeletal and dental remains Extensive coverage of new technologies, including modern morphometric techniques Advances in the field of forensic anthropology Enhanced discussion of ethical terms regarding the study of aboriginal peoples' remains where those people are no longer the dominant culture This book serves as an indispensable research guide to biological anthropologists, osteologists, paleoanthropologists, and archaeologists. Now with a stronger focus on teaching complex material to students, this revised edition provides enhanced case studies and discussions for future directions, making it an invaluable textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in biological anthropology and forensic anthropology programs.

Book A Radiographic Study of Permanent Tooth Calcification and Eruption Sequences in Alaska Native People

Download or read book A Radiographic Study of Permanent Tooth Calcification and Eruption Sequences in Alaska Native People written by Samuel O. Hutchinson and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Currently, little research has been conducted on the timing of tooth development in Alaska Native people. Radiographic images from 510 Alaska Native people were analyzed to determine significant differences in the timing of permanent tooth calcification and eruption using the Moorrees et al. (1963a, 1963b) and Trodden (1982) methods respectively. The mean and median age and range of variation per stage of development was established for four discernable groups. In order of earliest general development these groups are: Western/Northern Region females, Western/Northern Region males, Interior/Southeastern Region females, and Interior/Southeastern males. Differences between the sexes were greatest in the Western/Northern Region. The most notable trend in both tooth calcification and eruption was that Alaska Native populations tended to reach stages of development earlier in the posterior teeth but later in the anterior teeth when compared to most other US populations"--Leaf iii.
