  • To improve the recovery rate of unlocated buried human remains in forensic investigations, there is scope to evaluate and develop techniques that are applicable to the Australian environment. I established controlled gravesites (comprising shallow buried kangaroos, pigs, and human cadavers) in South Australia, to allow the methodical testing of remote sensing equipment for the purpose of grave detection in forensic investigations. Eight-month-old pig graves are shown to provide more distinct identifying results using ground-penetrating radar when compared to four-year-old kangaroo graves. Two further aspects of this research are presented: information (obtained from a survey) relating to the police use of geophysical instruments for locating buried human remains, and the use of electrical resistivity for locating human remains buried in a coffin. The survey of Australian police jurisdictions, covering the period 1995-2000, showed that police searches for unlocated bodies have not successfully located human remains using any geophysical instruments (such as ground-penetrating radar, magnetometers, or electrical resistivity). Lower resistivity readings were found coincident with the 150-year-old single historical burial in a heavily excavated field, in a situation where its exact location was previously unknown.

  • Preservation of artifacts that are excavated from archeological sites is closely related to soil environment. Biological remains are especially influenced by degradation activity of microorganism from soil environment. In this study a preserved human bone in archaeological tomb, Tou-kwang-myo from Joseon Period was analyzed to characterize bacteria groups by molecular genetic tools using 16S rDNA sequences. 117 clones were identified and classified 9 phylogenetic groups : ${\alpha}$-, ${\beta}$-, ${\gamma}$-, ${\delta}$-Proteobacteria, Sphingobacteria, Clostridia, Actinobacteridae, Nitrospiraceae, and Gemmatimonadetes according to homologous 16S rDNA sequences submitted in NCBI. ${\gamma}$-Proteobacteria group appears the highest ratio in bones (about 35%) while about 19.6% belong to the Actinobacteria group. The results may contribute to study on the effect of microorganisms on the human remains with burial method.

  • 본 연구는 부산 북구 화명동 조선시대 분묘군에서 출토된 사람뼈를 대상으로 분자유전학적 분석을 수행한 결과이다. 실리카 추출법을 사용하여 토광묘에서 출토된 사람뼈 8개체의 DNA를 분리하였고, 미토콘드리아 DNA 과변이부위 분석을 통해 모계 유연관계 여부를 확인하였다. 분석 결과 토광묘 11호, 21호, 26호에서 출토된 피장자 3명의 하플로타입이 동정되었으며 HaploGrep 2 프로그램에서 A5a, D4a와 M4"67+16311 하플로그룹으로 분류되었다. 하플로그룹이 동정된 3개체는 같은 변이형을 공유하지 않으므로 피장자 간 모계 친연관계는 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 이번 연구는 영남지역에서 출토된 조선시대 사람뼈의 분자유전학적 분석의 첫 사례로서 과거 한반도에 살았던 옛사람들과 현대인들의 유전학적 관계를 이해하기 위한 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 본 연구는 충청남도 아산시 탕정면 명암리 유적 9지점에서 발굴조사 된 고려 말에서 조선시대 초기 분묘 출토 인골 27개체를 대상으로 고유전학적 연구를 수행한 결과를 보고한 것이다. 실리카 추출 방법에 의하여 출토 인골로 부터 DNA를 추출한 후, 미토콘드리아 DNA(mtDNA)의 과변이지역을 9지역으로 나누어 PCR법에 의해 부분 증폭을 실시하였다. 증폭산물에 대한 염기서열 분석을 통하여 과변이지역의 변이형을 동정하였다. 그 결과 18개체의 mtDNA 분석이 가능하였으며, 아멜로제닌 유전자 분석에 의한 성결정은 M-26, M-29, M-37(L), M-49(R)의 4개체만이 분석되었고 모두 여성인 것으로 확인되었다.

  • The review article presents some of the history of how paleoparasitology started in Brazil, making highlight the great responsible Dr. Luiz Fernando Ferreira and Dr. Adauto Araujo, the trajectory of paleoparasitology in Brazil since 1978 and its performance in science to the present day. In sequence, it is made a presentation of parasitological findings on human remains found in archaeological sites in South America, highlighting Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Peru, where major discoveries have occurred. Many of the parasites found in archaeological material and mentioned in this review went out of Africa with the peopling of Europe and from there they dispersed around the world, where climatic conditions allow the transmission. However, humans have acquired other parasites of animals, since humans invaded new habitats or creating new habits adopting new technologies, thus expanding its range of influence on the environment. Thus, this review article is finalized with information that explain the importance of these findings in the interaction between parasites, human host, and ambient.

  • The identification of human remains can be performed visually through families and next-of-kin, but it is not advisable to rely only on visual recognition; instead, it is preferable to conduct a forensic comparison of antemortem and postmortem data for primary identifiers (fingerprints, DNA, and dental data). A dental autopsy is particularly valuable in the identification process of skeletonized, carbonized, saponified, and fragmented human remains. The principal challenge in the identification process is the search and collection of antemortem data. To this end, all dental information held on a missing person can represent a precious source of individualizing information that families should share with the police or investigating agencies after reporting a disappearance.

  • After a long, dormant period, recent attention has turned to a variety of measurement issues surrounding the concept of human capital. The traditional approach of rely entirely on measures of school attainment, while convenient, is almost certainly misleading. The availability of cognitive skills measures greatly improves on these measurements, but there remains also concern about other unmeasured factors, including noncognitive skills. This paper considers alternative approaches to assessing the role of human capital on individual earnings and on economic growth.

  • 2007년 1월 국방부 유해발굴감식단이 창설되어 본격적인 유해발굴이 추진되었다. 현재 발굴 범위는 한국전쟁 당시 치열한 전투가 벌어진 비무장지대 내의 화살머리고지까지 확장되어 진행되고 있다. 백마고지에서는 많은 유해 및 유류품이 발굴되고 있다. 대부분 파손된 상태여서 정확한 형태를 복원하기는 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 3D 스캔과 3D 모델링을 통해 발굴된 유류품의 원형을 복원하고자 한다. 이러한 디지털 복원 방식은 그동안 수작업 방식의 단점을 보완하는 원형 복원의 대안이 될 수 있다. 현재 문화유산 분야에서는 3D 기술을 사용한 각종 디지털 복원이 활발하다. 디지털 복원이 된 자료는 디지털 헤리티지의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있다. 이를 토대로 다양한 유해발굴 및 호국보훈 관련 콘텐츠의 개발이 이루어질 수 있을 것이다. 더 나아가 발굴된 유해에 대한 디지털 휴먼 복원이 이루어진다면 전사자들의 생전 모습을 재현할 수 있을 것이다.
