BURIAL AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATION IN ITALIAN IRON AGE NECROPOLES: TESTING A BIODISTANCE APPROACH
… skeletal estimations of biological kinship (“biodistance”) and its role in the burial and social organizational practices of two central Italian Iron Age (1000-27 BC) groups: Pentri Samnites from Alfedena Campo Consolino (600-400 BC, L’Aquila, Abruzzo) and Pretuzi from Campovalano (750-100 BC, …

Whence came the English?: exploring relationships between the Iron Age, Romano-British and Anglo-Saxon periods in Britain and Denmark : a craniometric biodistance analysis
… are found to be significantly associated with biodistance, in some cases. Results indicate strong links between Britain and Denmark, in both the Iron Age and the early and later Anglo-Saxon periods, suggesting that substantial migration between Britain and the continent may have occurred. …

Dental Variation in Central Mexican Latinx Individuals
… cervical measurements. Biological distance, or biodistance statistics, fuzzy c-means analyses, and linear discriminant function analysis were utilized to analyze this variation. The Latinx population has been shaped through 500 years of microevolutionary forces due to European colonization of …

Ties that bind: investigating Hyksos provenance and migration using dental morphology.
… biochemical techniques. Biological distance, or biodistance, measures the similarity and dissimilarity of individuals and groups from skeletal remains using multivariate statistical analysis. Distance measures can be based on allele frequencies or haplotypes (measuring genotypic expression), or …

An Assessment of the use of Photogrammetry in Cranial Metric and Non-Metric Studies
… determine the reliability of photogrammetry in biodistance research. All percent error rates, with the exception of inter orbital breadth, fell beneath an accepted 2% margin, in addition the standard deviation of digital measurements was less than that of physical measurements. However, a number …
