AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Bade analyzed the skeletal material found during excavation of Stratum 9E at Modoc. The remains were of one female individual probably aged 45-50 years at death. The remains show evidence of arthritis and periostitis. Her cranium was missing and it appears it was removed after death after the body had decomposed.
