bioarchaeology: A Pathfinder

This is a computer-generated pathfinder created against the Distant Reader study called bioarchaeology.

Each Distant Reader study carrel is composed of many individual items. Each item is bibliographically described with author, title, date, summary, and keyword values. Below is a list of the items' most signficant keywords as well as lists of the items themselves. Purpusing the content of this pathfinder provides the student, researcher, or scholar with one way to get their heads around the scope of the carrel. The keywords include:

Age; Human; Bioarchaeology; Analysis; Mean

Depending on how this pathfinder was created, many of the bibliographic sections will include elaborations on the meaning(s) of the given keywords. These elaborations were generated by feeding the items' summaries to a large langauge model and asking the model to address the question, "What is X?", where "X" is the keyword. The result will be a few sentences of elaboration. Be forewarned. The elaborations are often plausible, but they should not be take as truth. Instead, they should be taken as points for consideration.

• Living and Dying in Mountain Landscapes: An Introduction by Beck, Jess; Quinn, Colin (2021) - These methodological advances take advan- tage of the topographical, geological, and ecological diversity of mountain landscapes. The papers share a number of unifying themes, including the impact of mountain landscapes on channeling resource control, creating or mediating diverse identities, and the impor- tance of interdisciplinary investigations for developing an understanding of the relationship between people and place.

• Patterns of Disease and Culture in Ancient Panama: A Bioarchaeological Analysis of the Early Graves at Cerro Juan Díaz by Smith-Guzmán, Nicole; Sánchez Herrera, Luis; Cooke, Richard (2021) - That nearly half of the individuals buried in the early contexts at Cerro Juan Díaz correspond to in- fants, children, and adolescents follows closely the distribution of non-adults and adults seen in later contexts at the site (Díaz 1999).

• Stronger Together: Advancing a Global Bioarchaeology by Baker, Brenda J.; Agarwal, Sabrina C. (2017) - The Development of Bioarchaeology Bioarchaeology as a field of research has had different trajectories related to variability in academic tradi- tions between North America and those in Britain, France, and other countries (for detailed reviews, see Buikstra et al. 2011; Knüsel 2010; O’Donnabhain and Lozada 2014; Sheridan 2017). Differential frailty and risk of death for subgroups that are identified through archaeological evidence or mortuary context now are more fre- quently investigated (e.g., DeWitte 2010; Stojanowksi 2013; Storey et al. 2012; Sullivan 2005).

• Intersectionality and the Interpretation of Past Pandemics by Yaussy, Samantha (2022) - Given the fact that it is capable of producing diagnostic bony lesions (Roberts and Buikstra 2003), tuberculosis is an example of a disease that can be included in bioarchaeological studies of intersectional health outcomes, even in the absence of supporting documentary or mortuary evidence. Additionally, given the close relationship between industrial-era England and the concentration of intersectionality studies of living populations in Western, industrialized contexts (including the United Kingdom), the study by Yaussy (2019) also demonstrates the potential for bioarchaeological studies to meaningfully enter into interdisciplinary discussions of intersectionality and health by providing temporal depth and contextual details concerning the initial production and subsequent maintenance of systemic forms of oppression that are studied by social scientists in the present day.

• Gender across Generations: Childhood Food Practices as Socialization Processes in Ancient China by Miller, Melanie J.; Halcrow, Siân E.; Yang, Bowen; Dong, Yu; Pechenkina, Kate; Fan, Wenquan (2023) - There are a few in- dividuals who do not follow these patterns (a few females with high δ15N values, a few males with low δ15N values) who likely indicate how diet is also entan- gled in aspects of wealth, status, access, and other factors. The δ13C values ranged from − 18.6‰ to − 6.8‰, and δ15N values ranging from 2.4‰ to 10.7‰. Recent bio archae ol o gi cal research using stable isotope anal- ysis has documented dietary differences between nobles and commoners, with nobles/high- status indi- viduals having the highest nitrogen values, indicat- ing greater meat consumption and often consuming greater amounts of millet (or rice), which were also highly valued (Wei et al. 2021; Zhou 2020; Zhou et al. 2021).

• Forgotten Children: The Fetal and Infant Skeletal Remains of the W. D. Trotter Anatomy Museum, New Zealand by Southorn, Megan; Halcrow, Siân E.; Lončar, Stephie R.; Sudron, Emma L.; Smith, Chris; Jones, D. Gareth (2024) - Unfortunately, the relatively high in- fant mortality rates of the late nineteenth century meant that the reality of infant death was something many families faced (Clarke 2012; Jalland 1996). Although it is highly unlikely the infant and fetal re- mains of the W. D. Trotter Anatomy Museum are of Māori ancestry, discussion of infant death and mortu- ary treatment within Māori culture is relevant, even if to rule out this possibility.

• Social Determinants of Head Trauma? : Skull Fractures in Nineteenth-Century Male Prisoners in Graz, Austria-Hungary by Geber, Jonny; Hammer, Niels (2025) - For ex- ample, Johfre and Saperstein (2023) discuss social age within a multilevel system where age can determine behavioral expectations in new interactions, such as dominance, submission, violence, or respect.

• Building a Bioarchaeology of Pandemic, Epidemic, and Syndemic Diseases: Lessons for Understanding COVID-19 by Robbins Schug, Gwen; Halcrow, Siân (2022) - This makes it difficult to disentangle co-morbidities in an individual, and there are also interpretive issues due to the so-called osteological paradox—in which chronic conditions are more likely to be expressed and heterogeneous frailty biases our interpretation (DeWitte and Stojanowski 2015; Wood et al. 1992). We have yet to fully grasp the demographic and evolutionary consequences of the pandemic, although it is becoming clear that genetic, social, and environmental factors play a role in susceptibility to severe disease (see, e.g., Anastassapoulou et al. 2020; Godri Pollitt et al. 2020; Sironi et al. 2020), and there may also be impacts on pregnant women and infants that will be felt in the coming generations (Wastnedge at al. 2021).

• Using Content and Bibliometric Network Analysis to Understand the Development and Study of "Violence" in Bioarchaeology by Schattke, Constanze; Eggers, Sabine; Wilfing, Harald (2025) - To account for the development of the field of violence research in bioarchaeology through time, the analysis was conducted in 10- year research brackets based on the year of publication, starting with the first publication in 1987 (Supplemental Figs. The disparities result- ing in structural violence stem from medical, cultural, and economic factors, with capitalist struc- tures often exacerbating social and political instabili- ties, leading to disadvantages for out- groups (Farmer 2004; Springer 2011; Whitehead 2007).

In contrast to previously discovered cases of pre-Hispanic amputation in the region, skeletal and mortuary evidence from Túcume suggests that ampu- tation occurred as a form of medical intervention, and accommodation of resulting physical limitations fell within contemporary cultural norms.

Preface We are very excited to take on the role of the Co-Edi- tors-in-Chief of Bioarchaeology International despite the extremely challenging timing of the transition in July 2020, amid a global pandemic and increasing global awareness of the urgent need to revise ethical standards toward greater representation and equity in our discipline.

• Beyond Mortality: Survivors of Epidemic Infections and the Bioarchaeology of Impairment and Disability by Battles, Heather; Gilmour, Rebecca (2021) - By breaking the assumed link between physical impairment and social disability, the social model de-naturalized disability and opened up space for not only changing policy and professional practice but “transform[ing] consciousness” more broadly (Oliver 1996:42). A “survivor lens” thus not only moves us from mortality to morbidity, impairment, and disability but also aids in making the leap from physical impairment to social disability—and exploring the relationship between them.
