โœฆ Synopsis

Activity patterns in an assemblage of medieval skeletons from York, England, are investigated using analyses of biomechanical properties of the humeral diaphyses. Evidence is found for differences in activity patterns between males and females and between male layfolk and members of a male monastic community.

Magnetic prospection of archaeological sites depends strongly on the susceptibility, w m , of the upper layer of soils and on their ferrimagnetic mineral content. The minerals involved may be authigenic, biogenic or anthropogenic (by firing). To characterize and identify different ferrimagnetic mine
