    Ancient DNA in Physical Anthropology: A Review by Jacqueline E Broida B.A., Miami University, 2006 A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment Of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Anthropology 2011 This thesis entitled: Ancient DNA in Physical Anthropology: A Review Written by Jacqueline E Broida Has been approved for the Department of Anthropology X Dennis Van Gerven X Darna Dufour X Herbert Covert Date _________ The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Broida, Jacqueline E (Masters, Biological Anthropology) Ancient DNA in Physical Anthropology: A Review Thesis directed by Full Professor Dennis VanGerven The field of ancient DNA began in 1984 with the sequencing of quagga—an extinct member of the horse family—DNA and the development of PCR (Higuchi et al., 1984). Since then, ancient DNA has been used in physical anthropology. Ancient DNA has a variety of applications in anthropology including phylogentic relationships and human evolution, movement and migration, the study of hominin ancestors, sex determination, agriculture, animal domestication, nutrition, diseases, historical kinships, and primate conservation. In particular aDNA technology has given anthropologists the opportunity to study the history and pre-history of the agricultural expansion in the Pacific as well as the ability to learn more about the Neanderthals: what their mitochondrial genome was like, how much their genome differed from the modern human genome, their pigmentation, and their position in hominin phylogeny.

  • Jochen Holger Schutkowski
    Jochen Holger Schutkowski Biological anthropologist specializing in scientific studies to reconstruct diet, disease, and mobility in ancient populations As a teacher of osteology for archaeology and anthropology students Holger Schutkowski often had to be inventive. On one occasion he faced a long wait from suppliers for models of human teeth in order to demonstrate natural variation and sampling strategies so had casts made of his own masticators. Fully up to the job the casts are still in use, showing not only his appetite for home-spun solutions but also a preference for circumventing officialdom and bureaucracy when it suited him. Human remains fascinated Holger, and his enthusiasm was infectious. Colleagues recall his patience when excavating complicated prehistoric burials, and his precision when laying out ancient skeletons in the laboratory for analysis. Ethical considerations were always at the forefront of his thinking and led to his involvement in the Working Group on the Revision of Burial Legislation led by the Ministry of Justice in 2011. He was soon afterwards appointed Chairman of the influential Advisory Panel on the Archaeology of Burials in England (APABE), a tricky time as deep-seated concerns about the storage and treatment of human remains found voice through protest groups and the popular press, challenging museums and researchers to rethink working practices and tighten up established systems. As colleague Simon Mays recalls, ‘his unfailing good humour and people-skills allowed many potentially difficult situations to be successfully resolved through compromise and consensus’. Research into the life and death of individuals and whole communities lay at the heart of his academic work.

  • Osteoporosis and Paleopathology: a Review
    doi 10.4436/JASS.92003 JASs Invited Reviews Journal of Anthropological Sciences Vol. 92 (2014), pp. 119-146 Osteoporosis and paleopathology: a review Francisco Curate Research Centre for Anthropology and Health, University of Coimbra, Rua Arco da Traição, 7, 3000 Coimbra, Portugal e-mail: [email protected] Summary - Osteoporosis is a complex and heterogeneous disorder, of multi-factor aetiology. It is the most frequent metabolic bone disorder, affecting an increasing number of post-menopausal women and aging individuals from both sexes. Although first recognized more than 250 years ago, the clinical and epidemiological knowledge about osteoporosis is largely limited to the last 70 years. Within the conceptual frames of paleopathology, disease is necessarily perceived in a space without depth (the skeleton) and of coincidence without development (the crucial moment of death) – but is also interpreted in a time interval which adds an historical gaze to its “biography”. The study of osteoporosis in past populations (which faced sociocultural conditions utterly different from the genus vitae experienced by modern communities) supplements diachronic depth to the knowledge about bone modifications related to age, menopausal status or lifestyle. This article aims to provide a comprehensive record on the history of osteoporosis and fragility fractures as perceived by the biomedical, historical and, particularly, paleopathological sciences. As such, the main focus of this review is to present an exhaustive and historical-framed exposition of the studies of osteoporosis, bone loss and associated fractures within the field of paleopathology and, to a lesser extent, in the history of medicine. A biomedical-oriented synopsis of the main operational definitions, etiological agents and epidemiological features of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures is also provided Keywords - Osteoporosis, Bone loss, Fractures, History of medicine, Paleopathology.

Molecular paleopathology has become an emerging be suitable for investigation using complex and comprehensive field that helps to characterize molecular markers of past genotyping techniques (3). Encouraged by all these facts, a pilot disease. Especially highly sensitive genetic techniques such as study with bone material from a Scythian burial (4) was PCR are an important means of unraveling changes in ancient performed, in order to test whether ancient DNA is suited to DNA extracted from bone tissue, teeth and mummified soft characterization of the genes involved in carcinogenesis and to tissue. In the present study, excavated bone material from the tumoripathological problems analysis. skeleton of a Scythian sovereign, morphologically and immunohistochemically suspicious of a metastatic prostate Materials and Methods carcinoma, was analyzed by PCR for amplifiable human gene sequences.

  • Using Ancient DNA Analysis in Palaeopathology: a Critical Analysis of Published Papers, with Recommendations for Future Work
    International Journal of Osteoarchaeology Int. J. Osteoarchaeol. 18: 600–613 (2008) Published online 2 May 2008 in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/oa.966 Using Ancient DNA Analysis in Palaeopathology: A Critical Analysis of Published Papers, with Recommendations for Future Work C. ROBERTS a* AND S. INGHAM b a Department of Archaeology, Durham University, South Road, Durham DH1 3LE, UK b Department of Rheumatology, Clinical Sciences Building, City Hospital, Nottingham NG5 1PB, UK ABSTRACT Despite an observable increase in the number of studies using ancient DNA analysis to diagnose disease in human remains, there remain issues to be addressed about the quality of the resulting publications. This paper describes the qualitative analysis of published papers that describe the detection of pathogenic DNA in human skeletal and mummified remains from archaeological sites. Its ultimate goal is to provide an overview of the main problematic issues in relationship to standards developed in molecular biology and to make recommendations for future work. Sixty-five papers published between 1993 and 2006 were surveyed and the quality of each was assessed using 15 criteria. Interesting results emerged. Of particular note was the high number of papers that did not acknowledge the use of even basic contamination control (90%) or procedures to validate results independently (85%). This study illustrates that attention to contamination control and authentication of results is needed in future research, if confidence in aDNA analysis in palaeopathology is to be increased. Additionally, methods of analysis must be described in published papers to ensure transparency in processes utilised to generate the data.
