The Bioarchaeology of Continental Croatia: An analysis of human skeletal remains from the prehistoric to post-medieval periods

This book examines the bioarchaeology of continental Croatia from Prehistoric to Historic times and offers a model for research applicable to future investigations. The data collected shows important similarities ad differences in demography and disease frequencies between five temporal groups. Differences in the frequencies of subadult stress, infectious disease and trauma suggest a deterioration of living conditions during the Late medieval period. Multivariate craniometric analysis show that this coincides with an expansion of Early medieval Croat populations from the Eastern coast of the Adriatic, into modern Bosnia and Herzegovina and continental Croatia.
