AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Molleson discusses the human remains at Abu Hureyra 1 and 2 from trenches B, D, E, and G. As there were very few remains associated with Abu Hureyra 1 this document is essentially about Abu Hureyra 2; circa 9,400 BP-7,000 BP; with a little about the remains from Abu Hureyra 3. Molleson describes how the remains were analyzed and the state the remains were found in. The pathologies, genetic anomolies, age of death, dental health, and some of the stresses of life are described.
