Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This volume describes and discusses the skeletal evidence from the graves excavated at the site (the subject of a previous volume) in terms of the morphology, nutrition, dental and skeletal health, disease, demographics and funerary customs of the people that inhabited this site between c.2000-1500 BC. The excellent preservation of organic material including bone, food remains and coprolites allowed a detailed reconstruction of the changing lives of these individuals over a number of generations. Evidence is combined with data from the other volumes which detailed the excavation, biological remains and material culture of the site.
