Nechayev, Irina.

A bioarchaeological study of health in the prehistoric population from CA-Ala-329. - 199 p.

Adviser: Elizabeth Weiss.

Thesis (M.A.)--San Jose State University, 2007.

This thesis assesses health in the prehistoric population from the CA-Ala-329 site (San Francisco Bay area) using osseous markers of physiological stress as investigative tools. Archaeological studies from the region provide information on increase in sedentism, population growth, and depression of food resources in late prehistory. The present study examines health consequences of changing environmental and cultural conditions that occurred during a span of almost 2000 years (300 BC--AD 1800).

520 $a This thesis assesses health in the prehistoric population from the CA-Ala-329 site (San Francisco Bay area) using osseous markers of physiological stress as investigative tools. Archaeological studies from the region provide information on increase in sedentism, population growth, and depression of food resources in late prehistory.

520 $a The research, based on a skeletal population of approximately 300 individuals, reveals that overall load of stresses did not change over time. Males and females were generally equally affected by stresses. In the last prehistoric period, however, females exhibited a higher load of nutritional stresses than males. Observed skeletal markers indicate that early childhood stresses from infectious diseases and inadequate nutrient supply, which resulted in enamel hypoplasia and cribra orbitalia lesions, adversely influenced stature and longevity of affected individuals.
