Puzzling Pairs from Pavlov: Mortuary Manipulation in the Mid Upper Paleolithic
Original language description
Trinkaus, E., Wojtal, P., Wilczyński, J., Sázelová, S., Svoboda, J. Puzzling Pairs from Pavlov: Mortuary Manipulation in the Mid Upper Paleolithic. American Journal of Physical Anthropology. 2017, roč. 162, S64, s. 386. ISSN 0002-9483. The archeologically rich earlier Mid Upper Paleolithic (MUP) sites of Dolní Věstonice and Pavlov, southern Moravia, have yielded three single burials and a triple one, and long series of isolated human remains. In addition, the southeastern part of the Pavlov I site has provided a pair of isolated partial hand skeletons, Pavlov 31, and central portion of Pavlov I has provided two pairs of isolated partial pedal skeletons (Pavlov 37 and 38) plus a pair of probably associated patellae (Pavlov 34 and 35). The only other human bone from Pavlov I central is a partial metacarpal 2 (Pavlov 36). The Pavlov 34 to 38 (plus Pavlov 31) human remains are porous and eroded, in contrast to excellent faunal osseous preservation, implying burial in articulation with soft tissue. None of them shows carnivore or cutmark damage. These combinations of isolated pairs of patellar, pedal (and palmar) human remains from Pavlov suggest a pattern of the deliberate manipulation and differential disposal of corporeal portions in the MUP.
