Abstract: | Stress indicator analysis in historical populations allows us to make an approximation to the like quality conditions of human popultions. Those markers, like caries frequency, presence of hipoplasic defects in dental enamel and other markers are indicators of acute or generalised pathologic processes suffered by individuals as a result of adverse environmental conditions, absence of food resources or high incidence of infectious sickness. Wound presence in bones allows to diagnose their ethiology and extrapolate in order to deduct health conditions of individuals. Roman and Medieval periods are good examples for those analysis application. Nevertheless we must point out the limits and possibilities of those markers used, taking care of having representative samples specially related to age and sex of the human groups studied. |
