This book is the first to be entirely devoted to the study of children\'s skeletons from archaeological and forensic contexts. It provides an extensive review of the osteological methods and theoretical concepts of their analysis. Non-adult skeletons provide a wealth of information on the physical and social life of the child from their growth, diet and age at death, to factors that expose them to trauma and disease at different stages of their lives. This book covers the factors that affect non-adult skeletal preservation the assessment of their age, sex and ancestry growth and development infant and child mortality including infanticide weaning ages and disease of dietary deficiency skeletal pathology personal identification and exposure to trauma from birth injuries, accidents and child abuse providing new insights for graduates and postgraduates in osteology, palaeopathology and forensic anthropology. The #1 manual for biological anthropology, Soluri/Agarwal has become even more visual and hands-on in its Second Edition. New interactive exercises that emphasize the process of science and the scientific method, along with increased and improved images in the osteology chapters, give students the most impactful lab experience. And whether used standalone or packaged with a Norton textbook, Soluri/Agarwal is the most affordable manual for students, with the most robust suite of instructor and student resources. 1 Physical / Biological Anthropology Emergence o f Modern Human a nd Their Dispersal Paper No. : 01 Physical / Biological Anthropology Module : 09 Emergences of Modern Human and Dispersal Prof The Benefits of Reading Books
