Estimating age at death from an archaeological bone sample – a preliminary study based on comparison of histomorphometric methods
The estimation of age at death is one of the most fundamental biological parameters, determined on skeletal remains in anthropological context. That is why, there is a constant need to improve applied methods. Histomorphometry, which uses microscopic analysis of bone tissue is suggested to be one al...
