Astrogation problem? We've got an Osteology problem, if you were a bone what would you be? Bones Boys Pete and Josh talk shop and then get into the latest episode of Skeleton Crew, Episode 3 "Very Interesting, as an Astrogation Problem." Email: poeboyspodcast@gmail.com
On the outside we all look different, but on the inside all of us are propped up by a frame of collagen, calcium, and minerals forming the human skeleton. And it's not just us with the bones—most of the animals we see around us have them too. These graveyard greeters might have a grim reputation that often make them a symbol of Halloween, but Ashley Mason Burns-Meerschaert—director of operations and education at Oklahoma City's Museum of Osteology—joins the show today to explain why they might not be so scary after all, and give us a scoop on how to get involved with their Forensic Nights. Also on this week's episode, the editors discuss some of their favorite Halloween costumes from the past, and podvents merges the worlds of fellow Wills, Rogers and Smith. You won't want to miss it!

It's the early 1900s in an Appalachian town filled with immigrants, and Yelena is the first American born to her Old Believer Russian Orthodox parents. She can cook, clean, and take care of her baby siblings by age nine, but she loves school and wants something different that all the other girls, who get married by 13 or 14, and start having more babies than they can feed. The boys quit school to work in the mines along with the dads, and the Old Believers help each get through one challenge after another. When the mine explodes, it's just another calamity in their lives. Yelena dreams of the fairy tales and fables she grew up hearing in this satisfying tale about family, community, and surviving as an immigrant in America. Mary Kay Zuravleff is the award-winning author of American Ending (Blair, 2023), inspired by her Russian Orthodox Old Believer grandparents who lived in the coal-mining town of Marianna, PA. Her third novel Man Alive! was a Washington Post Notable Book, and she is the winner of the American Academy's Rosenthal Award, the James Jones First Novel Award, and numerous DC Artist Fellowships. The Bowl Is Already Broken, her second novel, was described by the New York Times as “a tart, affectionate satire of the museum world's bickering and scheming.” In fact, Mary Kay worked for several Smithsonian museums for a dozen years, and she will go to any museum on any topic anywhere she happens to be. This has included the Acme Music Museum in Michigan, the Bee Museum in Quebec, and the Museum of Osteology in Oklahoma. G.P.

You're in for a treat, Land of the Living! This episode features a conversation with Kaitlin, a scholar of Anthropology, Paleo Pathology, Osteology, and Bio Archeology. The DIE casters delve into the fascinating topic of Universities that still have the remains (not artifacts!) of many indigenous people and what can be done to return these remains to their rightful resting places. Despite Federal law stating that the remains must be returned, most have not been! This is definitely a topic we will happily revisit with updates in the future!

It's fascinating to consider the fact that all animals share the similarity of having a skeletal system of one sort or another. Having this commonality unites us all in a way, which piques the interest of people like Jay Villemarette. Mr. Villemarette is the founder of Skulls Unlimited. He has been captivated by skulls since an early age, and this fueled his desire to start Skulls Unlimited, which eventually gave way to the founding of The Museum of Osteology in Oklahoma City, OK. Tune in now to hear Jay discuss: How and why he had a replica of his own skull made. Where Skulls Unlimited gets their skeletons from. What the process of removing the soft tissue from bones looks like. To learn more about Jay and his work with skulls, visit www.skullsunlimited.com and www.skeletonmuseum.com.

A seven-year-old boy plays in the forest, stumbles upon a dog skull, and falls into a lifelong passion for all things bones. That was decades ago, and the boy was Jay Villemarette. He's now the founder of Skulls Unlimited and owns a collection of 7,000+ bone specimens, 700+ of which are on display at the Museum of Osteology in Oklahoma City, OK. Every year, tens of thousands of visitors seek the awe-inspiring sight of skeletons big and small, from humpback whales to hummingbirds. Press play to learn: How Jay had a replica of his own skull created (finally realizing the dream of “holding his own skull”!) Which little insects make Jay's job significantly easier … and how they do it How Jay was able to amass such a large and impressive collection of osteological specimens over the years What it takes to reposition small vs. large skeletons for display Offer: This episode is sponsored by Organifi.

The bones of the skull are an important foundation for dental hygiene students to understand prior to taking local anesthesia and working with patients in the clinical setting who present with complexities to their medical history or disease status. This information will provide the student with the basic structures and landmark features located on the cranial and facial bones that make up the skull.

As Brazilians, we can tell how common this situation is - a random dude finds a fossil and sells it, hoping to make a pretty penny out of it and make ends meet. The problem, though, is that said fossil usually ends in collectors hands; people who will never allow a real expert to study that discovery, let alone publish an article about it. Thankfully, this time things went a different route, as a police raid successfully seized an uncommonly well-preserved Tupandactylus fossil, giving scientists the opportunity of dwelling on it a tad more. Join us today as we discuss the details of this news and the impact of such a finding.

Welcome to this week's episode with fellow Anthropology undergraduate at UCSB, Nina Wilson. She is one of my classmates who presented a wonderful presentation to our class on sex and gender in osteology, where she discussed some of the outdated terms and issues are in forensic and bioarchaeological research that exclude or ignore the existence of transgender and intersex individuals in the population. One of the main points we try and convey in this episode is intersex people exist and have existed so it is important to evaluate how as scientists we can better represent those individuals in research.

Have you ever seen Dr. Temperance Brennan aka "Bones" solving crimes with Agent Booth on TV? Well, it is the very thing that inspired me to pursue becoming a forensic anthropologist, and today I talk about the inaccuracies of some of the methods, but also where they shone with realistic science! This was just a fun way for me to ramble about Osteology, share my favorite bone, some ways to sex and age skeletal remains and honestly just express my love for the show!

On today's episode of the #podcast, we are discussing the Festival of Freaks, coming up on March 21st at the OK State Fair Park. We have a great interview with Kaci Burr, one of the Festival of Freaks organizers and local artist. Festival of Freaks is a celebration of all that is weird. From strange and unusual art and collectibles, contortionists, palm readers, belly dancers, and much more. The event is sponsored by the Museum of Osteology and Skulls Unlimited International. State Fair Park is one of the largest event facilities in the country and is one of the primary reasons that Oklahoma City is known as the Horse Show Capital of the World.

Let's dig right into Spooktober with ... BONES. You're a steak-covered skeleton and it's nothing to fear. The amazingly kind and committed osteologist Dr. Daniel J. Wescott of Texas State University's famed Forensic Anthropology Research Center sits down -- surrounded by skulls and femurs and ribs -- and chats about how bones are formed, how they break, why they might hurt when the weather changes, what CSI gets wrong, how long it takes a body to decompose, looking for isotopes in found remains, cast iron coffins, skeleton myths, body donation, and more. Will Alie freak out, or will this exposure to hundreds of skeletons under one roof chill her out? Also, dickbones: are they for winners or losers?

DOC SHOCK Biopsies may soon be a thing of the past! The University of Michigan has developed a device that can detect cancer. It's a wearable device that filters blood to find cancer cells. It essentially “scans” the blood cells to look for cancer. The device is also relatively small, measuring 2 by 2.75 by 1 inch. Researchers tested the device on dogs, and it worked! It's estimated that the device will be available in 3 to 5 years after human clinical trials. When it comes to cancer, the earlier it is detected, the better. To catch cancer early, be sure to schedule your physicals yearly. Read more! Follow us on Facebook! Tweet us on Twitter! Download the show on iTunes! Visit our website!

This special edition introduces the topic of Human Osteology, presented by Emma Green, a PhD candidate at the University of Sheffield.
I have been interested in sensory history for a long time now, so the chance to read aloud this article by Miriam Kolar on the archaeoacoustics of Chavin de Huantar, a UNESCO site in the Peruvian Andes, is exciting. In the article, the interplay between ritual, musical instruments, and architecture is explored in order to reconstruct the experience of the oracle. Not only does the article present a rich analysis of the site, it introduces readers (er, listeners) to the methodology behind archaeoacoustics and the ways in which archaeologists reconstuct ephemeral evidence in order to understand individual and communal experiences. Although we travel away from the Mediterranean for this article, the methods, theory, and hypotheses that underpin it are important for every archaeologist, historian, or philologist.The Journal: Here.The Article: HereDownload from iTunes: HereFeedburner: Here
"Abstract: The Antikythera Mechanism is a fragmentarily preserved Hellenistic astronomical machine with bronze gearwheels, made about the second century B.C. In 2005, new data were gathered leading to considerably enhanced knowledge of its functions and the inscriptions on its exterior. However, much of the front of the instrument has remained uncertain due to loss of evidence. We report progress in reading a passage of one inscription that appears to describe the front of the Mechanism as a representation of a Greek geocentric cosmology, portraying the stars, Sun, Moon, and all five planets known in antiquity. Complementing this, we propose a new mechanical reconstruction of planetary gearwork in the Mechanism, incorporating an economical design closely analogous to the previously identified lunar anomaly mechanism, and accounting for much unresolved physical evidence."Link to article: Here.

Area of the Cloaca Maxima later repaired under Domitian.This week we dive into the major sewer of Rome, the Cloaca Maxima, and attempt to dispel some preconceived notions surrounding it---namely that it always served as Rome's sewer. An article by John N.N. Hopkins explores the topography of early Rome during the regal period--the period of the kings prior to the founding of the Republic [753-509 BCE]--and proposes that the use of the Cloaca Maxima changed over time from the regal period into the Republican and then later imperial era. Moreover, its initial building served as a monumental statement to both Romans and non-Romans of the power of the burgeoning city. His article is a splendid reminder that infrastructure can shift in purpose over time and a further demonstration of how monumental building serves as visual propaganda.Link to the Article: HereLink to the Journal: HereLink to the Podcast on Feedburner: HereItunes Link: Here
Detail of a snail-and-fruit basket from a 4th centurymosaic in Basilica Patriarcale in Aquileia. (wikimedia commons)Kristina finally jumps in to read her own article, Food for Rome, on the podcast thanks to permission from the journal publisher, Elsevier. This is an article that benefits from tables and figures, so do click through to the article at the Journal of Anthropological Archaeology site to see those visualizations while you listen or afterwards.Abstract: During the Empire, the population of Rome was composed mostly of lower-class free citizens and slaves. Viewed from historical records, the Roman diet included primarily olives, wine, and wheat, but poor and enslaved Romans may have eaten whatever they were able to find and afford, leading to significant heterogeneity in the Roman diet. Previous carbon and nitrogen isotope analyses of skeletons from Imperial Italy have begun to reveal variation in diet, but little is known about what people ate in the capital city. This study complements previous work by adding new isotope data from human skeletons found in two Imperial-period (1st–3rd centuries AD) cemeteries in Rome. These data suggest that urban and suburban diets differed, most notably in the consumption of the C4 grain millet. Comparing these new data with all published palaeodietary data from Imperial Italy demonstrates that significant variation existed in the diet of the common people.Full Citation: Killgrove, K. and R.H.

Hematite magic scarab gem with a"uroborus" serpent. Protective gem.(1st century CE, Roman Egypt)Today we delve into the world of magic! Nicola Mureddu discusses first Roman and then early Christian perceptions of magic in this article, and delves into the key powers, beliefs, and figures in both systems. Of special concern is Simon Magus--Simon the Magician--a first century CE convert to Christianity who engaged in magic and made many claims as to his own powers before being ultimately defeated by St. Peter. The article provides a basic understanding of some key ideas and sources in respect to ancient magic in the early empire into the fourth century CE.PDF of the Article: Here. Journal Issue: Here.

For a broader overview of magic and its criminalization in the Roman empire [in text form], I would suggest James Rives' wonderful article on "Magic in Roman Law."
In this episode, Sarah reads two open-access palaeopathology articles.Simona Minozzi, Federica Bianchi, Walter Pantano, Paola Catalano, Davide Caramella and Gino Fornaciari, (2013) "A Case of Gout from Imperial Rome (1st-2nd century AD)." J Clin Res Bioeth 4:4. Abstract: The study of pathological alterations in ancient skeletal remains may contribute to the reconstruction of the history of diseases and health conditions of ancient populations. Therefore, in recent research palaeopathology provides an important point of view in bioarchaeology and medicine. This work describes the bone alterations observed in the skeleton of an adult woman found during archaeological excavations in the greatest necropolis of the Imperial Age in Rome. The skeletal remains showed some pathological anomalies and the most evident alterations consisted of multiple osteolytic lesions involving mainly the small bones of the feet, which presented round cavitations and scarce signs of bone repair. Differential diagnosis suggests that this individual was affected by gout, probably associated with hypothyroidism that determined her short stature. Article Link.S. Minozzi, A. Lunardini, P. Catalano, D. Caramella, G. Fornaciari, (2013) "Dwarfism in Imperial Rome: A Case of Skeletal Evidence." J Clin Res Bioeth 4:154. [No Published Abstract]This article explores a skeleton that shows signs of dwarfism excavated from the Collatina necropolis in eastern Rome. Skeletal evidence for dwarfism in this time period is extremely rare, and this find allows a bioarchaeological window into an occurrence largely known in antiquity from literature and art. Perhaps what was most interesting to me was the discussion toward the end of the article to do with the shift from acceptance to rejection of dwarfs between the Roman and Christian periods.Article Link.

This podcast ventures into the exciting realm of digital humanities by taking a look at the aims and methods of the HESTIA Project! We will read Elton Barker (Principal Investigator), Stefan Bouzarovski (Co-Investigator), Chris Pelling (Co-Investigator) and Leif Isaksen (ICT Consultant)'s 2010 article, "Mapping an ancient historian in a digital age: the Herodotus Encoded Space-Text-Image Archive (HESTIA)."ABSTRACT: "HESTIA (the Herodotus Encoded Space-Text-Imaging Archive) employs the latest digital technology to develop an innovative methodology to the study of spatial data in Herodotus’ Histories. Using a digital text of Herodotus, freely available from the Perseus on-line library, to capture all the place-names mentioned in the narrative, we construct a database to house that information and represent it in a series of mapping applications, such as GIS, GoogleEarth and GoogleMap Timeline. As a collaboration of academics from the disciplines of Classics, Geography, and Archaeological Computing, HESTIA has the twin aim of investigating the ways geography is represented in the Histories and of bringing Herodotus’ world into people’s homes."The Article Itself.

David Rohrbacher (NCF) is a prominent scholar of late antique historiography. In this important article, he weighs in on the sources of the (in)famous Historia Augusta. If you like this article, I would try his excellent book, Historians of Late Antiquity. "Abstract: The first step toward unravelling the mysteries of the late Roman biographical collection called the Historia Augusta is to separate out the authentic historical material from the fictions which the author offers in abundance. This article presents a careful re- examination of the evidence for the sources of each section of the work, concluding that the author draws upon Enmann’s Kaisergeschichte and its progeny, Marius Maximus, Herodian, Dexippus, and, for the last Lives, a Greek source, perhaps Eunapius."Link to Histos Table of Contents.Link to the Article PDF.Link to the Podcast.

Few who work with the Theodosian Code are unfamiliar with Clyde Pharr's (Vanderbilt University) massive 1952 translation (Princeton University Press) of the legal work. Prof. Linda Jones Hall writes eloquently about the women--in particular Dr. Theresa Davidson--who contributed to the translation of the Theodosian Code, and the personal feuds and gender politics that may have contributed to their marginalization. This article also considers the contribution of Wyoming judge Fred H. Blume. The article illustrates that while female classicists were hard at work in mid-century America, they were not always given their due. It also demonstrates that, largely in the name of pomp, circumstance, and the name-dropping of well-known scholars, women and men of lesser academic renown were sometimes overlooked and unmentioned, though their work was of a high caliber.A link to the pdf of the article here:Linda Jones Hall, "Clyde Pharr, the Women of Vanderbilt, and the Wyoming Judge: The Story Behind the Translation of the Theodosian Code in Mid-Century America," Roman Legal Tradition 8 (2012), 1-42.

QUEST travels to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History to meet Dr. Spurlock, an anatomist and forensic reconstruction artist who uses clay to re-construct the faces of ancient humans in order to show what they looked like when alive. She also sketches more recently deceased individuals using only their remains in order to help law enforcement solve crimes.
