Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The musculoskeletal stress markers (MSM) are the indices for elucidating the life style of ancient people, by estimating the frequent movement, which is presumed by the scoring of the degree of the bone surface roughness in the muscle attachment site on the limb bones. This study clarified the interrelationships between the MSM on one hand, and the cortical thickness, muscle mechanical index, and muscle contractility index on the other hand. By means of these relationships, the present study also devised the method contributing to the precise reconstruction of the life style in ancient human. Targeting only the adults in same sex and close in age, who grew up in the same environment, it is difficult to detect the differences of the developmental degree clearly in the musculoskeletal developmental indices (substitute of MSM). The present study also indicated that these indices are not correlated with the cortical thickness and muscle contractility index.
