The Anthropology of Modern Human Teeth: Dental Morphology and its Variation in Recent Human Populations

Scott, G. Richard, Turner, Christy G.·1997·Cambridge University Press eBooks

Abstract

All humans share certain components of tooth structure, but show variation in size and morphology around this shared pattern which is studied by dental anthropologists. This book presents the first worldwide synthesis of the global variation in tooth structure in recent populations. It:describes the methods and assumptions used by dental anthropologistsdiscusses the genetic basis of nonmetric dental traitsportrays the geographic variation of tooth crown and root traitsanalyzes dental variation on a global scale paralleling major genetic and craniometric analysesThe book illustrates more than 30 tooth crown and root traits and reviews their biological and genetic underpinnings. This analysis links extinct and extant populations and so serves as a useful tool for elucidating population relationships and histories.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
