Contribution of Bioanthropology to Defining the Tell el-Dab‘a Population in the Eastern Delta: Preliminary Findings
The data provided in this paper was presented at the workshop ‘Changing clusters and migration in the Near Eastern Bronze Age’, held at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in 4th–6th December, 2019. The work has been conducted under the Hyksos Enigma project’s Research Track 7 (RT7) in Bournemouth University (United Kingdom), focusing on bioarchaeology and the study of skeletal human remains from Tell elDab‘a. This paper highlights the potential of using an integrated suite of osteological analyses in the archaeological framework, offers an overview of the field of bioarchaeology, presents some preliminary findings using this framework, and offers further possibilities and directions. The paper focuses on the different aspects of research conducted by RT7, including non-destructive macroscopic (dental nonmetric trait and palaeopathological) analysis and biochemical (aDNA, stable isotope) analysis.

Abstract

The data provided in this paper was presented at the workshop ‘Changing clusters and migration in the Near Eastern Bronze Age’, held at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in 4th–6th December, 2019. The work has been conducted under the Hyksos Enigma project’s Research Track 7 (RT7) in Bournemouth University (United Kingdom), focusing on bioarchaeology and the study of skeletal human remains from Tell elDab‘a. This paper highlights the potential of using an integrated suite of osteological analyses in the archaeological framework, offers an overview of the field of bioarchaeology, presents some preliminary findings using this framework, and offers further possibilities and directions. The paper focuses on the different aspects of research conducted by RT7, including non-destructive macroscopic (dental nonmetric trait and palaeopathological) analysis and biochemical (aDNA, stable isotope) analysis.
