Abstract(s)
No âmbito do acompanhamento arqueológico dos trabalhos de alteração e ampliação dos imóveis situados entre a Rua Maria Brown e a Rua da Fonte, concelho de Lisboa, freguesia de Carnide, foram recuperados os restos esqueléticos de sete indivíduos (cinco não adultos e dois adultos [sexo feminino: 1; sexo masculino: 1]). A análise da antropologia funerária indica que a amostra estudada se situa cronologicamente em período islâmico. As análises paleodemográfica e paleopatológica, embora limitadas pelo tamanho amostral, sugerem que pelo menos alguns dos indivíduos estudados sofreram de stress fisiológico sistémico. Foram observados casos de hipoplasia do esmalte dentário (N=2), hiperostose porótica (N=1) e cribra orbitalia (N=1), bem como uma infecção não específica – osteomielite. No seu todo, os dados bioarqueológicos deste pequeno grupo apontam para condições socioeconómicas e sanitárias
deficitárias.
During the archaeological monitoring of the construction site at the Maria Brown and Fonte streets, Lisbon municipality, township of Carnide, the skeletal remains of seven individuals (five non-adults and two adults [females: 1; males: 2]) were recovered. The anthropological funerary evaluation indicates that the studied sample is probably from the Islamic period. Although limited by sample size, paleodemographic and paleopathological analyses suggest that at least some of the studied individuals experienced physiological systemic stress. Cases of linear enamel hypoplasia (N=2); porotic hyperostosis (N=1) and cribra orbitalia (N=1), as well as a case of non-specific infection – osteomyelitis, were recorded. As a whole, the bioarchaeological data pertaining this small group point to faulty socioeconomic and sanitary conditions.
