Pereira, Telmo; Monteiro, Patrícia; Paixão, Eduardo; Nora, David; Évora, Marina; Detry, Cleia; Assis, Sandra; Carvalho, Vânia; Holliday, TrentonUIDB/04038/2020 UIDP/04038/2020; Throughout prehistory, landscapes were repeatedly subjected to both global and localized climatic fluctuations that changed the regional environments where human groups lived. This instability demanded constant adaptation and, as a result, the functionality of some sites changed over time. In this light, the western coast of Iberia represents an exceptional case study due to the...

Is differential diagnosis attainable in disarticulated pathological bone remains?
Assis, Sandra; Henderson, Charlotte Yvette; Casimiro, Sílvia; Alves Cardoso, FranciscaIF/00127/2014/POSDOC IF/00127/2014/CP1233/CT0003 SFRH/BPD/82559/2011 IF/00127/2014 UID/ANT/04038/2013; Differential diagnosis is a fundamental step in every palaeopathological study. It is a challenging exercise since many intrinsic and extrinsic factors may negatively impact the accurate interpretation of bone changes in human skeletal remains. Among these, the completeness and preservation of skeletal element...

Nora, David; Monteiro, Patrícia; Monteiro, Patrícia; Paixão, Eduardo; Assis, Sandra; Évora, Marina; Duarte, Carlos; Marreiros, João; Carvalho, VâniaUID/ANT/04038/2013; Enquadrado no projeto de investigação EcoPLis – Ocupação Humana Plistocénica nos Ecótonos do Rio Lis, o Abrigo da Buraca da Moira situa‑se no vale dos Murtórios (Leiria). O sítio corresponde a uma cavidade cársica seccionada por uma pedreira artesanal, com uma sequência com níveis holocénicos e plistocénicos bioturbados. Os níveis arqueológicos holocénicos, são principalmente caracterizados ...

Exploring poverty
Alves Cardoso, Francisca; Assis, Sandra; Henderson, CharlotteUID/ANT/04038/2013 SFRH/BPD/43330/2008; Background: The inference of the state of wealth or poverty from human skeletal remains is a difficult task, as the limited number of skeletal changes are mediated by numerous other physiological, biomechanical and pathological events. In recent years, identified skeletal collections have become valuable resources in enabling aetiologies of these changes to be understood ...
In search of consensus
Villotte, Sébastien; Assis, Sandra; Cardoso, Francisca Alves; Henderson, Charlotte Yvette; Mariotti, Valentina; Milella, Marco; Pany-Kucera, DorisUID/ANT/04038/2013; This article presents a consensus terminology for entheseal changes that was developed in English by an international team of scholars and then translated into French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and German. Use of a standard, neutral terminology to describe entheseal morphology will reduce misunderstandings between researchers, improve the reliability of comparisons between studies, and el...
Bone Diagenesis and its Implication for Disease Diagnosis
Assis, Sandra; Keenleyside, Anne; Santos, Ana Luisa; Cardoso, Francisca AlvesUID/ANT/04038/2013 SFRH/BD/36739/2007 SFRH/BPD/43330/2008; When bone is exposed to the burial environment it may experience structural changes induced by multiple agents. The study of postmortem alterations is important to differentiate decomposition phenomena from normal physiological processes or pathological lesions, as well as to assess bone tissue quality. Microscopy is of great utility to evaluate the int...
