He or she? The Use of an Integrated Approach for Sex Determination in the Bioarcheological Research
This research aims to determine the sex of non-adult skeletal
remains from two archaeological sites dating to the Roman
Imperial and Medieval periods by using morphological, morphometrics
and molecular approaches. The determination of sex from non-adult remains is a debated issue in the literature even though it has important
implications in the palaeodemographic reconstruction of past populations.
Concordance between the different approaches was obtained in the 63% of cases (N=19). The
obtained results although preliminary are encouraging even though much research is needed
for enlarging the sample size and for applying the cutting-edge High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) technologies

Tempi dell’agricoltura monastica e del lavoro monastico in Occidente
Il contributo prende in esame la scansione con la quale i grandi enti monastici europei organizzano i tempi agricoli, le forme del popolamento extraurbano, le scelte colturali. Queste azioni riferiscono e disegnano il paesaggio di intere aree dell'Europa occidentale, in modo così significativo da avere riflessi sino all'età moderna
