Journal ArticleDOI

Chronological metamorphosis of the auricular surface of the ilium: a new method for the determination of adult skeletal age at death.

C O Lovejoy, +3 more
- 01 Sep 1985 - 
TL;DR: Results show that the system is equally accurate to pubic symphyseal aging (although somewhat more difficult to apply), and also carries the advantages of a higher preservation rate for the auricular surface in archaeological populations and continued age-related change beyond the fifth decade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ectocranial suture closure: a revised method for the determination of skeletal age at death based on the lateral-anterior sutures

Richard S. Meindl, +1 more
- 01 Sep 1985 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that suture closure can provide valuable estimates of age-at-death in both archaeological and forensic contexts when used in conjunction with other skeletal age indicators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dental wear in the Libben population: Its functional pattern and role in the determination of adult skeletal age at death

C O Lovejoy, +2 more
- 01 Sep 1985 - 
TL;DR: Dental wear is concluded to be a highly reliable and important indicator of adult age at death for skeletal populations if seriation procedures are employed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A revised method of age determination using the os pubis, with a review and tests of accuracy of other current methods of pubic symphyseal aging

Richard S. Meindl, +4 more
- 01 Sep 1985 - 
TL;DR: Modifications were made of the Todd system to eliminate this and other deficiencies, and a second test using a new sample was conducted, and the age distribution determined by the revised Todd method did not significantly differ from the actual age distribution of the second sample.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gait of Australopithecus.

C O Lovejoy, +4 more
- 01 May 1973 - 
TL;DR: Morphological differences between Australopithecus and modern man appear to be the result of different degrees of encephalization rather than any difference in locomotor adaptation.
