Abstract

Paleopatologija je znanstvena disciplina koja nam omogućuje razumijevanje bolesti, ozljeda i životnih navika prošlih populacija. Kosti su jedan od osnovnih izvora informacija na arheološkim lokalitetima, ali osteološki je materijal vrlo često fragmentiran i selektivno očuvan. Ta je fragmentiranost izražena u gornjem paleolitiku, koji je i kronološki okvir ovog rada. Rad je fokusiran na anatomski moderne ljude na prostoru Europe u gornjem paleolitiku. Primarni je cilj pružiti pregled patoloških stanja dostupnih iz literature. Nakon preglednog dijela rada u kojemu su pruženi općeniti podatci o lokalitetima u uzorku i nabrojane sve patološke promjene, rezultati su prikazani relativnom i apsolutnom učestalosti prema kulturama gornjeg paleolitika i regijama Europe. Patološke kategorije u raspravi se stavljaju u širi kontekst i međusobne odnose te se povezuju sa saznanjima iz literature.

Abstract (english)

Paleopathology is a scientific discipline that allows us to understand the diseases, injuries and lifestyles of past populations. Bones are one of the basic sources of information at archaeological sites, but osteological material is often fragmented and selectively preserved. This fragmentation is expressed in the Upper Palaeolithic, which is also the chronological framework of this work. The thesis is focused on anatomically modern people in Europe in the Upper Palaeolithic. The primary objective is to provide an overview of pathological conditions available from the literature. After the review, in which the general data about the sites in the sample are provided and all of the pathological changes are listed, the results are presented in relative and absolute frequency according to Upper Paleolithic cultures and regions of Europe. Pathological categories are placed in a wider context and mutual relations in the discussion and they are connected with data from the literature.
