Abstract:
This article explores the importance of the Derbyshire antiquarian Thomas Bateman in the context of mid-nineteenth-century debates about ethnology, craniology, and archaeological chronology. New information on the relationship between Bateman and the authors ofCrania Britannica, Joseph Barnard Davis and John Thurnam, is brought to light thanks to unpublished archival material from the Sheffield Museums and the Royal Anthropological Institute.Crania Britannicawas the first publication of British national skull types from prehistory to the Anglo-Saxon period. The publication employed the techniques of craniology—the systematic study of head types—as a chronological tool. Indeed, craniology is often seen as the mechanism by which the Three Age System was initially received in Britain and Ireland. Here, Bateman's involvement in the publication and his own theories on the development of the past with regard to cranial sequencing and archaeological chronology are explored in greater detail.

Abstract:
We have examined 942 skulls from the collections of the Anuchin Research Institute and Museum of Anthropology (13 craniological collections of the Arctic groups). We have analyzed the total frequency of HFI, used a comparative intergroup analysis, and evaluated the degree of HFI expression and the distribution of the trait according to sex and age. Univariate nonparametric statistics was applied. Results. It was found that the rate of HFI in the Arctic groups is much lower than in other groups of modern Eurasian and American populations. In the combined series, HFI was equally represented in both males and females. However, according to the age distribution, the male and female groups are different. HFI was more frequent in males in the Adultus and Maturus groups and in the Senilis group in females. Discussion. The significantly lower frequency of HFI in the Arctic series relative to the other modern groups show us a low level of metabolic disorders in the Arctic population and a good adaptation to the type of nutrition and living in extreme conditions. The obtained data show the predominance of the trait in the groups of mature and elderly women, and the appearance of HFI of different severity in men regardless of the age category. Probably, in the Arctic samples in women, HFI identifies metabolic disorders due to normal hormonal changes in women aging. HFI should be considered as an indicator of the presence of metabolic disorders in young and mature age in Arctic men group.

Full text
Abstract:
The Matjes River Rock Shelter, in the Plettenberg Bay region of South Africa, has a large collection of archaeological cranial remains representing 8,000 years of occupation. Forty-three adult crania from the Matjes River collection are studied here, many which have not previously been published. These crania are compared through multivariate analysis with other dated crania from Fish Hoek, Cape Flats, Elands Bay, Port Elizabeth and Kenkelbosch, and with archaeological crania from five ecological biomes, Forest, Fynbos, Nama Karoo, Savanna, and Succulent Karoo biomes in southern Africa. Historical southern African populations, KhoeSan (31) and South African Negroid (120) crania, are also used to compare the affinities of the Ma~es River individuals. The sample sizes within this study are small and an attempt has been made to address this issue by the use of multiple analytical methods and multiple 'tests' of variable sets to improve the statistical significance of results. This study, incorporating the largest collection of Matjes River individuals, uses principal components analysis to show the individuals to be a single biological population and illustrates with Euclidean distance statistic strong morphological similarities between the individuals. From principal component analysis, and discriminant function analysis there is no determination of morphological differences between the crania on the basis of geographical or environmental differentiation. Overall the KhoeSan crania in this study show homogeneity in form. Holocene gracilisation is seen in the dated crania through principal components analysis. The temporal changes found also indicate a change over time relating to nasal height measurements, while Spearman's rank correlation coefficient found no temporal shape changes occurring between the dated samples. Interestingly, discriminant analysis classification found non-KhoeSanid morphology is represented by several dated individuals as early as 9,000 years BP. This indication of non-KhoeSanid morphology may hint at possible admixture of the KhoeSan population with outsiders, but is a stronger indicator that origins of KhoeSan craniofacial patterns are not yet fully understood.

Abstract:
Statistically significant correlations between anthropometric land environmental variables havel I been demonstrated in samples of Holocene Aboriginal crania and mandibles from the east coast of Australia. In testing for variation that may be attributed to climatic adaptation, the model of decreased nasal breadth in colder climates is not supported, but increased cranial breadth is included in principal component scores which correlate with increased latitude and decreased temperatures. Thus the model of increased brachycephalization as a response to decreased temperature is not refuted by these results, but the support demonstrated is secondary to more impressive results for the face and mandibles, for which thermoregulatory explanations have not hitherto been suggested.

Abstract:
Cranial and post-cranial non-metric variants are used to examine 664 individuals from the Grasshopper Pueblo skeletal series. The pueblo was inhabited from the 12th to the 14th century A.D. A variety of statistical analyses are utilized to examine patterns of morphological variation which can be used to assess whether biological differences can be demonstrated on the basis of non-metric trait frequencies. All traits are examined for frequency of occurrence, and trait frequencies are then tested to determine if they vary by side of the body, sex, age, type of cranial deformation or association with one another. A series of skeletons are re-tested in order to test intra- and inter-observer reliability. A refined list of traits developed from these analyses is then used to examine trait frequency distributions among the three major room blocks at the site. The full battery of traits used in this study are found to be free of the effects of side of the body, sex, type of cranial deformation and associations with one another, but are affected slightly by age. Intra- and inter-rater reliability are low for this sample and battery of traits. The conclusion is that individuals from the Pueblo do not aggregate into groups which are distinguishable on the basis of non-metric traits.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: There has been a long-standing need to systematically analyze and classify South African fossil Lacertilia. Although extensive assemblages of fossil lizard and amphibian material from Langebaan on the West Coast and elsewhere exist in museum collections, the fragmentary nature of the material has largely prevented in-depth analyses and identification. In this comparative study the skulls and lower jaws of 7 lizard genera, representing the six extant South African families, were disassembled and the bones analyzed individually. The aim was to compile a comparative database of each bone against which current and future fossil finds could be matched. Detailed descriptions of the isolated elements were given. The results showed that despite some intra-generic variation, unique structural differences do exist in individual bones which may be utilized in the taxonomic assessment of fragmentary fossil material.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Daar bestaan lank reeds 'n behoefte vir die sistematiese analise en klassifisering van fossielmateriaal van Suid-Afrikaanse Lacertilia. Alhoewel uitgebreide versamelings van akkedis- en amfibier-fossiele van Langebaan aan die Weskus en elders in museums bestaan, het die fragmentariese aard van die materiaal grootliks diepgaande analises en identifikasie belemmer In hierdie vergelykende studie is die skedels en onderkake van 7 akkedisgenera, wat die ses resente Suid-Afrikaanse families verteenwoordig, gedisartikuleer en elke been individueel geanaliseer. Die doel was om 'n vergelykende databasis van elke been saam te stel waarmee huidige en toekomstige fossielvondse vergelyk kan word. Gedetaileerde beskrywings van die ge'isoleerde elemente word gegee. Die resultate toon dat desondanks 'n mate van intra-generiese variasie, unieke strukturele verskille tussen individuele bene weI bestaan en dat hierdie verskille gebruik kan word om fossielfragmente taksonomies te analiseer.

Abstract:
Le cerveau est un tissu mou, qui ne se fossilisent pas. Pour en déduire l'évolution du cerveau humain, il est donc essentiel d'étudier les preuves indirectes sur la morphologie endocrânienne. Pour faire des déductions sur le cerveau des endocrâne fossiles, il est essentiel de comprendre la relation entre le cerveau et endocrâne des humains actuelles. Dans cette thèse, l'endocrânne versus l'ontogénie du cerveau est caractérisé par l'imagerie médicale et des méthodes morphométriques. La thèse analyse les corrélations des ces deux structures et comment ils interagissent au cours de la croissance et le développement. Les modèles de taille et de change de forme de l'endocrâne et le cerveau sont étroitement corrélés au cours de l'ontogenèse précoce, mais pas à la fin de cours de l'ontogenèse. Inférences cerveau-endocrâne des hominidés fossiles immatures sont donc plus fiables que dans des spécimens adultes
The brain is a soft tissue, which does not fossilize. To infer human brain evolution, it is therefore essential to study the indirect evidence left in the form of endocranial morphology. Before inferences on the brain can be drawn from fossil endocrania, however, it is vital to understand the relationship between brain and endocranium in living humans. In this PhD thesis, human endocranial versus brain ontogeny is characterized with medical imaging and morphometric methods. The thesis analyzes how these two structures correlate and interact during growth and development. Patterns of size and shape change of the endocranium and the brain are closely correlated during early ontogeny, but not during late ontogeny. Brain-endocast inferences in immature fossil hominins are thus more reliable than in adult specimens

Abstract:
Certains caractères du squelette consideres comme présents ou absents, aussi appeles discrets, sont bien définis chez l'homme. Paradoxalement, les données relatives aux genres Pongo, Gorilla et Pan sont diffuses voire absentes car, très souvent, l'échantillon utilisé est incomplet. Nous avons défini 40 caractères discrets crâniens avec 1453 individus provenant exclusivement du milieu naturel. Le développement de chaque caractère est étudié. Trois différences significatives, comparables à celle observée entre les deux espèces de chimpanzé, sont soulignées. Pan troglodytes verus est morphologiquement distinct des deux autres sous-espèces de chimpanzé commun. Une différence morphologique significative existe également, d'une part, entre le gorille d'Afrique occidentale et celui d'Afrique orientale, d'autre part, entre les deux sous-espèces d'orang-outan habituellement reconnues. La reconstruction phylogénétique montre un clade (Homo, Pan). Nous démontrons l'intérêt de l'utilisation des caractères discrets pour l'étude de l'évolution humaine et des grands singes. La variation géographique observée pour certains caractères discrets chez Pongo, Gorilla et Pan permettra de mieux interpréter la morphologie des fossiles.

This chapter examines how Black and Afro-Native ethnologies published in the 1830s and early 1840s resisted the racist visual cultures of comparative anatomy, including craniology and ethnology. The ethnologies of Robert Benjamin Lewis, Hosea Easton, and James W. C. Pennington challenged the tethering of the black body to visual representations of pathology in both science and popular culture through the production of a counter-archive of visual culture, as well as through ekphrastic re-visions of the Black, Native American, and Afro-Native body.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter interrogates the dominance of early psychometrics in the form of racial comparative craniology, in particular the measurement of brain volume. It opens with a reading of Turner’s Confessions to outline Black genius as a challenge to ubiquitous theories of racial cognitive difference, leading into an examination of Great Man theory in advocacy works like those of William Wells Brown in relation to the reformist impulse of the otherwise racially conflicted and complicit field of phrenology. These moments, the chapter argues, outline the emergence of a trend toward psychometric thinking that is exemplified by the medical testing the Union Army conducted on the brains of Black people. It is an act of cultural midwifery of sorts, creating a psychometric gaze that then infects the birth of the Realist novel, as exemplified by Miss Ravenel’s Conversion and Daniel Deronda.

Full text
Abstract:
The conclusion reviews the various ways that African American writers, artists, and performers responded to racial science in the age of comparative anatomy, from critiquing and deconstructing it, to parodying it and even, at times, flirting with it. Next, it turns to a genealogy of black craniology evident not only in the writings of James McCune Smith but also in anthropology work by Zora Neale Hurston to consider fugitive science’s postbellum migration from the natural sciences to the social sciences, as theories of race became increasingly tied to theories of culture rather than biology. The conclusion uses Ann Petry’s 1947 short story, “The Bones of Louella Brown,” to map the shifting relationship between black science and black literature at midcentury, a period that was witnessing the professionalization of both science and literary authorship. Finally, it turns to science in the age of neoliberalism and globalization to think about fugitive science as a model of resistance to contemporary forms of racial science, especially in genomics.

Abstract:
Was Pitt-Rivers really the ‘father of field archaeology’? He certainly contributed to artefact seriation and was aware of the importance of everyday artefacts for archaeological reconstruction, but, though meticulous in recording artefacts, he was not noted for recognizing structural features and he did not excavate stratigraphically. Field survey had a long history in Britain before the establishment of the Royal Commissions at the beginning of the twentieth century, with air photography subsequently developing out of military survey in the First World War. The importance of stratigraphy, association, and context was promoted by Sir Mortimer Wheeler from the 1930s, but scientific techniques were not widely applied until after the Second World War, with the advent of radiocarbon dating, geophysical survey, and a developing range of analytical techniques. Environmental archaeology as an integral part of the discipline was a relatively late development, as were osteological studies, notwithstanding the interest in craniology since Victorian times. ‘Rescue’ archaeology and development-funded archaeology has not only transformed the scale and quantity of finds, but has transformed qualitatively understanding of settlement patterns and distributions.
