| Osteometric data from the human remains recovered at the Mangum Site in Claiborne County, MS, a Plaquemine necropolis dating to approximately 1300 AD, were analyzed for patterns of stature and robusticity. The condyle-malleolus length (CML) of the tibia (the distance from the most distal point of the medial malleolus to the superior surface of the lateral plateau) was measured using an osteometric board (as in Bass 1987). |
