Involutionary Processes in the Skeleton of Mediaeval and Contemporary Populations on the Basis of the Second Metacarpal
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.18778/1898-6773.59.06Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present general trends in bone involution using second metacarpal in a mediaeval population and to compare the obtained results with data for contemporary groups. The findings may be valuable for the knowledge of general and regional human skeletal ageing.
