Abstract:
Background Bone strength is developed through a combination of the size and shape (architecture) of a bone as well as the bone’s material properties; and therefore, no one outcome variable can measure a positive or negative adaptation in bone. Skeletal robusticity (total area/ bone length) a measure of bones external size varies within the population and is independent of body size, but robusticity has been associated with bone strength. Athletes may have similar variability in robusticity values as the general population and thus have a wide range of bone strengths based on the robustness of

Abstract:
Cortical bone thickness is important for the mechanical function of bone. Ontogeny, aging, sex, body size, hormone levels, diet, behavior, and genetics potentially cause variations in postcranial cortical robusticity. However, the factors associated with cranial cortical robusticity remain poorly understood. Few studies have examined cortical robusticity in both cranial and postcranial bones jointly. In the present study, we used computed tomography (CT) images to measure cortical bone thicknesses in the cranial vault and humeral diaphysis. This study clearly showed that females have a greater

Abstract:
The origin of Aboriginal Australians has been a central question of palaeoanthropology since its inception during the 19th Century. Moreover, the idea that Australians could trace their ancestry to a non-modern Pleistocene population such as Homo erectus in Southeast Asia have existed for more than 100 years, being explicitly linked to cranial robusticity. It is argued here that in order to resolve this issue a new program of research should be embraced, one aiming to test the full range of alternative explanations for robust morphology.

Abstract:
This is an investigation of the relationships between robusticity and rugosity in the postcranial and cranial skeleton of modern humans. Robusticity is defined here as the strength of an element relative to its size, and refers to the thickness of limb bones for their length, and the relative size of cranial features. Rugosity refers to the surface features of bone, in particular fibrous and fibrocartilaginous entheses. Both data types may provide information about the lives of the individuals to whom the skeletal remains belonged. The two data types may also reflect different remodelling proc

Skeletal superstructure characteristics such as thick cranial vaults and well-developed supraorbital, infraorbital, zygomatic, temporal, and nuchal regions in hominins are collectively referred to as aspects of craniofacial robusticity. A better understanding of craniofacial robusticity is important because these features are regularly employed as individual traits in circumscribing fossil hominins as a means to separate other taxonomic groups from modern Homo sapiens even though the developmental and functional underpinnings of such traits are incompletely understood.

The nature of humeral torsion as an osteogenic response to the strain environment is investigated to identify its role in the behavioural morphology of the upper limb. These physical manifestations of strenuous physical activity provide an insight into the make-up of medieval armies prior to the establishment of standing armies.

Identifying factors that affect CVT would be exceedingly valuable in teasing apart potential contributors to thick vaults in the Pleistocene.

<p>There has been a trend toward decreasing skeletal robusticity in the genus Homo throughout the Pleistocene, culminating in the gracile postcrania of living modern humans. This change is typically attributed to changing tool technologies and subsistence patterns among human groups. However, other mammalian groups also experience a similar change in their postcranial strength over the same time period. It is proposed in this dissertation that ecological variables are correlated with measures of postcranial strength and may be a better explanation for Holocene skeletal gracilization in huma
