3.6 Anthropological analysis of teeth from the Hočevarica site

Abstract

Numerous human teeth were discovered during the excavations at Hočevarica. Three teeth from two different settlement phases were analyzed. In all three cases only the crown of the tooth is preserved; the roots are all destroyed, presumably resulting from the acidity of the Ljubljansko barje soil.
