Health and quality of life in the Early Modern Period St. Claire Monastery in Croatia
This poster presents the results of the anthropological analysis of the osteological material excavated at the site of St. Claire's convent near the church of St. Mary’s Annunciation on the island of Krk. A total of 10 grave units dated to the Early Modern Period were excavated. The graves contained the remains of 33 individuals (15 females, 7 males, and 11 subadults). Average life span for adults was 49.8 years (53.3 for males, and 46.2 for females). Quality of life and health were assessed using standard anthropological analysis that includes determining sex and age at death of the individuals, exposure to subadult stress (cribra orbitalia, linear enamel hypoplasia, and ectocranial porosity), indicators of dental health (caries, antemortem tooth loss, and alveolar disease), indicators of hard physical labour (degenerative osteoarthritis, Schmorl’s nodes on the vertebrae), indicators of non-specific infectious disease (periostitis), and the presence of deliberate trauma that would indicate of a high level of interpersonal violence.
