Association of early menarche with elevated BMI, lower body height and relative leg length among 14- to 16-year-old post-menarcheal girls from a Maya community in Yucatan, Mexico
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022-03-18)Human body segments have different timing and tempo of growth. Early menarche (EM) as an indicator of early reproductive maturity results in a shortened height and leg length. Relatively larger trunk may increase risk for ... -
Evolution of modern humans is a result of self-amplifying feedbacks beginning in the Miocene and continuing without interruption until now
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022-03-18)Humans are a part of the complex system of life. This consists of a multitude of feedbacks among all parts of living systems. In the case of human origins, many feedbacks became positive rather than homeostatic, thus ... -
Case study: trepanation or injury? An example of an early medieval skull from Płock (Poland)
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022-02-25)The aim of the study was to analyze a skull found in ossuary material in Płock, dated between the 16th and 19th centuries. The skull was subjected to a comprehensive anthropological analysis due to the number of pathological ... -

(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022-02-25)Skin ridges (dermatoglyphs or fingerprints) are a characteristic pattern of sulci on the skin of primates which appear on the entire hand palm and on the soles of the feet. Fingerprints are unique, irremovable and invariable ... -
Application of the lateral angle method for sex determination of cremated individuals from burials of the Lusatian culture cemetery in Czernikowice, Poland
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022-02-25)Research of cremated human remains are limited by severe analytical constraints. Estimation of basic anthropological parameters such as sex of individuals or their age at death is often uncertain. A method for assessing ... -
