Human tooth wear, tooth function and cultural variabilityWiley - Tập 34 Số 2 - Trang 175-189 - 1971
Stephen Molnar
AbstractAmong primitive peoples dental attrition appears to be a natural phenomenon. Often the degrees and kinds of tooth wear vary from population to population. This variability is possibly related to certain material aspects of culture such as diet, food preparation techniques and tool usage. In order to learn more about these relationships, extensive cross cult...... hiện toàn bộ
The physiological linkage between molar inclination and dental macrowear patternWiley - Tập 166 Số 4 - Trang 941-951 - 2018
Gregorio Oxilia, Eugenio Bortolini, Sergio Martini, Andrea Papini, Marco Boggioni, Laura Buti, Carla Figus, Rita Sorrentino, Grant C. Townsend, John Kaidonis, Luca Fiorenza, Emanuela Cristiani, Ottmar Kullmer, Jacopo Moggi‐Cecchi, Stefano Benazzi
AbstractObjectivesExact symmetry and perfect balance between opposite jaw halves, as well as between antagonistic teeth, is not frequently observed in natural masticatory systems. Research results show that asymmetry in our body, skull, and jaws is often related to genetic, epigenetic, environmental and individual ontogenetic fact...... hiện toàn bộ
Molar crown inner structural organization in Javanese Homo erectusWiley - Tập 156 Số 1 - Trang 148-157 - 2015
Clément Zanolli
ABSTRACTThis contribution investigates the inner organizational pattern (tooth tissue proportions and enamel–dentine junction morphology) of seven Homo erectus permanent molar crowns from the late Lower‐early Middle Pleistocene Kabuh Formation of the Sangiran Dome (Central Java, Indonesia). The previous study of their external characteris...... hiện toàn bộ
Exploring late Paleolithic and Mesolithic diet in the Eastern Alpine region of Italy through multiple proxiesWiley - Tập 174 Số 2 - Trang 232-253 - 2021

Menghi Sartorio, Ursula Thun Hohenstein, Luca Fiorenza, Ottmar Kullmer, Claudio Tuniz, Jacopo Moggi‐Cecchi, Sahra Talamo, Federica Fontana, Marco Peresani, Stefano Benazzi, Emanuela Cristiani
AbstractObjectivesThe analysis of prehistoric human dietary habits is key for understanding the effects of paleoenvironmental changes on the evolution of cultural and social human behaviors. In this study, we compare results from zooarchaeological, stable isotope and dental calculus analyses as well as lower second molar macrowear...... hiện toàn bộ
Linear measurements of cortical bone and dental enamel by computed tomography: Applications and problemsWiley - Tập 91 Số 4 - Trang 469-484 - 1993
C. Fred Spoor, Frans W. Zonneveld, Gabriele A. Macho
AbstractThis paper explores the potential of high‐resolution computed tomography (CT) as a morphometric tool in paleoanthropology. The accuracy of linear measurements of enamel thickness and cortical bone thickness taken from CT scans is evaluated by making comparison with measurements taken directly from physical sections. The measurements of cortical bone are tak...... hiện toàn bộ
Cervical and crown outline analysis of worn Neanderthal and modern human lower second deciduous molarsWiley - Tập 149 Số 4 - Trang 537-546 - 2012
Stefano Benazzi, Cinzia Fornai, Laura Buti, Michel Toussaint, Francesco Mallegni, Stefano Ricci, Giorgio Gruppioni, Gerhard W. Weber, Silvana Condémi, Annamaria Ronchitelli
AbstractDespite the general increase in digital techniques for dental morphometric analyses, only a few methods are available to study worn teeth. Moreover, permanent dentitions are studied much more frequently than deciduous teeth. In this study, we address both issues by providing a taxonomic classification of Neanderthal and modern human (MH) lower second decidu...... hiện toàn bộ
Performance analysis of deciduous morphology for detecting biological siblingsWiley - Tập 157 Số 4 - Trang 615-629 - 2015
Kathleen S. Paul, Christopher M. Stojanowski
ABSTRACTObjectives:Family‐centered burial practices influence cemetery structure and can represent social group composition in both modern and ancient contexts. In ancient sites dental phenotypic data are often used as proxies for underlying genotypes to identify potential biological relatives. Here, we test the performance of dec...... hiện toàn bộ
Enamel thickness of human maxillary molars reconsideredWiley - Tập 92 Số 2 - Trang 189-200 - 1993
Gabriele A. Macho, Margit Berner
AbstractForty‐four modern human maxillary molars (M1 = 21, M2 = 12, and M3= 11) were sectioned through the mesial cusps in a plane perpendicular to the cervical margin of the crown. Eight measurements of enamel thickness as well as bucco‐lingual (BL) and mesio‐distal (MD) diameters were recorded for eac...... hiện toàn bộ
