Matryoshki, masks and identities: bioarchaeology and the body
Bioarchaeology focusses upon the interaction between the skeletal body and the archaeology of the living and dead population. The study of bioarchaeology may therefore focus on the study of a series of identities expressed both on and by the body itself. In this sense, bioarchaeology views the body as a dynamic entity with multiple levels of interpretation and engagement. This paper considers these different identities as a series of matryoshki dolls and explores these ideas with a series of exemplar case studies.

Abstract
Bioarchaeology focusses upon the interaction between the skeletal body and the archaeology of the living and dead population. The study of bioarchaeology may therefore focus on the study of a series of identities expressed both on and by the body itself. In this sense, bioarchaeology views the body as a dynamic entity with multiple levels of interpretation and engagement. This paper considers these different identities as a series of matryoshki dolls and explores these ideas with a series of exemplar case studies.
