This volume gathers research in biological anthropology and osteoarchaeology presented at the 12th annual BABAO conference, held in 2010. The various sections group together papers that: explore how early humans developed as hunter gatherers until they started to farm particular crops; investigate health in past populations; highlight the importance of museums and their curators in preserving, recording, imaging and displaying material that helps us to understand biological anthropology better; showcase new techniques, explaining how they can lead to new discoveries, but also how techniques currently in use can often be improved; and finally, investigate burials in order to understand what people in the past thought was appropriate to do to the bodies of the dead. This volume thus brings together a collection of high-quality biological anthropology research into one place, helping us to appreciate how the different research areas within the field interact and overlap.
