Ancient DNA research in the past decade has revealed that European population structure changed dramatically prehistoric period (14,000–3000 years before present, YBP), reflecting widespread introduction of Neolithic farmer and Bronze Age Steppe ancestries. However, little is known about how from historical onward (3000 YBP - present). To address this, we collected whole genomes 204 individuals Europe Mediterranean, many which are first their region (e.g. Armenia France). We found most...

Children represent an important segment of the community and have role in reconstruction health status ancient populations. Child mortality is often used anthropology as adequate measure social sanitary conditions within a community, for determining progress population obtaining overview adaptation to changes surroundings. In this paper, results bioanthropological analysis non-adult skeletal remains from medieval necropolis Brskovo-Doganjice (Mojkovac, Montenegro) will be presented. The city...
This paper presents diseases which directly leave traces on osteological material (enamel hypoplasia, caries, traumatic conditions, haematological disorders, metabolic and middle ear inflammation) that no visible marks bones, may indeed be the direct cause of death children in ancient Sirmium. In paleodemographic research, child mortality rate is an important element a population?s progress. Child considered adequate criterion for social sanitation conditions community sensitive indicator...
The paper presents the case of pregnant woman discovered at medieval necropolis ?Preko Slatine? in Omoljica, a village near Pancevo. is dated to period 12th-13th century AD. It deals with aged 25-30 (probably around 28 years old) advanced stages pregnancy, grave No. 13. This possible conditions that led death this woman, but also problems faced by anthropologists when they attempt resolve individual cases like this. In paleodemographic research, mortality rate an important element...
