NOTE: “Undetermined” means there are insufficient data available (either because of limited exposure or because of the limitations imposed by in situ analysis).
HRO = Human Remains Occurrence; a = assessed, not present; na = not applicable (not present or not observable).
a Subadult = 0 to 20 years; adult = 20 years and older (from Buikstra and Ubelaker 1994*1).
