Resumo: Teeth are a very important resource in Biological Anthropology. One of their many uses is the evaluation of dental wear, which can document both masticatory and non-masticatory behavior. The objectives of this work are to 1) present a protocol for scoring evidence of non-masticatory activity applicable to all kinds of contexts (including commingled collective burials), 2) suggest interpretation tools, and 3) use simple, time-saving and accessible procedures. Procedures addressing oral alterations, a new trait – cingular continuous lesions (CCL) – and statistical analysis are described. This method will complement archaeological knowledge on past populations’ cultural, ritual or work-related tooth uses.
Les dents sont très importantes pour l’anthropologie physique. Un de ses uses est l’usure dentaire, qui peut documenter les comportements masticatoires et non-masticatoires. Les objectifs de ce travail sont 1) la présentation d’un protocole de registre des évidences d’activités non-masticatoires applicables à contextes diverses (notamment les enterrements collectifs mélangés), 2) la suggestion de outils d’interprétation et 3) l’use des méthodes simples, accessibles et rapides. Méthodes pour adresser les altérations orales, un nouvel trait – «cingular continuous lesions» (CCL) – et testes statistiques sont décrits. Cette méthodologie complément la connaissance archéologique de l’use dentaire en fonctions culturelles, rituelles et de travail.
