Temporomandibular Joint Size Decrease in American Blacks: Evidence from Barbados
TL;DR: Mandibular fossa size in a sample of slave skeletons excavated from a burial ground at Newton sugar plantation on Barbados represents a broad mixture of various populations imported from the west African coast and possibly a small number from southeast Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mouth breathing, occlusion, and modernization in a north Indian population. An epidemiologic study.
TL;DR: In this paper, village-dwelling Punjabi youths showed significantly better dental occlusion and less chronic respiratory allergy than their city-living counterparts, while posterior crossbite was the only occlusal condition correlated with mouth breathing in the samples studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primate skeletal allometry and hominoid evolution
TL;DR: Hinoid morphology and proportions are seen as having developed from parallel increase in body size and necessarily associated allometry, suggesting that more than one kind of locomotor pattern could have given rise to their distinctive shape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skull shapes and the map: Craniometric analyses in the dispersion of modern homo (Papers of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, Volume 79). By W. W. Howells. 189 pp. Cambridge: Harvard University Press. 1989, $35.00 (cloth), $14.95 (paper)
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of Dental Occlusal Variation: A Review of Methods
TL;DR: Methods are described from the literature that measure the location and extent of tooth relations in all three planes of space so that the space-time distributions of occlusalvariations can be known in more detail.
