dc.description.abstractIn 2009, the skeletons of 158 individuals were recovered from an urban dump (15th–17th centuries) in Lagos (Portugal). The biological profile of the individuals, the intentional modifications of their teeth, as well as the funerary and historical context support the hypothesis of them being African slaves. The present study aims to evaluate the frequency of non-metric characters in the skeletons of these individuals by sex and side in order to identify specific characters of this sample. All of the adult individuals in the collection (N=101) were included in the study. A total of 29 anatomical variations were sought-after in eight bones of the postcranial skeleton (clavicle, scapulae, humerus, radius, ulna, femur, patellae and tibiae). Nine of these characters were not found whereas the remaining 20 were recorded with frequencies between 1.8% and 96.1%. Only one character (costoclavicular sulcus) showed statistically significant differences between sexes. Six characters (suprascapular bevel, septal aperture, medial trochlear bevel, hypotrocanterial fossa, vast external bevel and lateral squat facet) presented differences between the two sides of the skeleton. No specific character was found for this population sample.eng
dc.description.abstractEm 2009, foram descobertos, em Lagos (Portugal), os esqueletos de 158 indivíduos inumados numa lixeira dos séculos XV–XVII. As condições de descarte dos indivíduos, o seu perfil biológico, as modificações intencionais dos seus dentes e o contexto histórico de Lagos suportam a hipótese de se ter tratado de escravos africanos. No presente estudo, pretendeuse avaliar a frequência de caracteres nãométricos nos esqueletos destes indivíduos, bem como diferenças entre sexos e lateralidades, de modo a identificar eventuais caracteres específicos desta amostra. Foram incluídos no estudo os 101 indivíduos adultos da coleção. Foram investigadas 29 variações anatómicas de oito pares de ossos do esqueleto pós-craniano (clavícula, escápula, úmero, rádio, ulna, fémur, patela e tíbia), das quais nove não foram encontradas. As restantes 20 foram registadas com frequências compreendidas entre 1,8% e 96,1%. Apenas um carácter (sulco costoclavicular) demonstrou diferenças significativas entre os dois sexos. As lateralidades revelaram-se diferentes em seis caracteres (chanfradura supraescapular, abertura septal, chanfradura troclear medial, fossa hipotrocanteriana, chanfradura do vasto external e faceta de agachamento lateral). Quando comparados com a literatura, os resultados obtidos não permitiram identificar qualquer carácter específico desta amostra populacional.por
