Atlas of Human Cranial Macromorphoscopic Traits synthesizes
macromorphoscopic traits and their analysis in an accessible
manner, providing detailed descriptions and examples of the various
character state manifestations intended for use in classrooms,
laboratories, and in the field. The volume begins with an outline
of the macromorphoscopic dataset, its history, recent modifications
to the historical approach, and recent technological and analytical
advances. Additional sections cover Nomenclature, Gross Anatomy,
Function, Methodology, Line Drawings, Detailed Definitions,
Multiple High-resolution Photographs, and Population Variation Data
from the Macromorphoscopic Databank (MaMD). The volume concludes
with a chapter outlining the statistical analysis of
macromorphoscopic data and a summary of the computer programs and
reference databases available to forensic anthropologists for the
analysis of these data.
Biological Distance Analysis: Forensic and Bioarchaeological
Perspectives synthesizes research within the realm of biological
distance analysis, highlighting current work within the field and
discussing future directions. The book is divided into three main
sections. The first section clearly outlines datasets and methods
within biological distance analysis, beginning with a brief history
of the field and how it has progressed to its current state. The
second section focuses on approaches using the individual within a
forensic context, including ancestry estimation and case studies.
The final section concentrates on population-based
bioarchaeological approaches, providing key techniques and examples
from archaeological samples. The volume also includes an appendix
with additional resources available to those interested in
biological distance analyses.
