Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This chapter discusses the history of paleopathology in Sweden. Paleopathology of skeletal remains in Sweden is considered a subfield of historical osteology, a discipline that combines the study of human and animal bones from archaeological sites, with roots in the works of Nils-Gustaf Gejvall (1911–1991). The chapter describes the development of the field from its beginnings in paleopathological work carried out on a personal interest basis to its establishment as an academic discipline. It identifies three pioneers—Carl Magnus Fürst (1854–1935), Carl-Herman Hjortsjö, and Gejvall—whose contributions are directly linked to the establishment of historical osteology.

Health and disease in early Lund, Osteo-pathologic studies of 3,305 individuals buried in the cemetery area of Lund 990-1536
- 1999

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose of this thesis is to characterize the health status of the population in early Lund. This is pursued by an osteological analysis of 3.305 individuals fron three time periods: c. 990-1100, c. 1100-1300 and c. 1300-1536. The individuals derives from cemeteries connected to four neighbouring churches, where one is the sucessor of the other (Trinitatis). One cemetery (Kattesund) is by and large completely excavated. This represents a situation not common to other excavations of Medieval cemeteries in Scandinavia. The following osteological parameters were studied: age, sex, stature, oral health, joint diseases, infections and trauma. The age distribution is more or less the same between the time periods. There is a tendency of a higher proportion of children found during the later periods. There is no significan difference with respect to stature between time periods. Further, no difference in stature could be substantiated with respect to the position of the graves, a dimension of the material that is known to correlate with socio-economic position of the deceased. Oral health detoriated during the last time period. The frequency of joint diseases, i.e. osteoarthritis did not change over time. Leprosy represents the most common form of specific infection beween 990-1100. At this time there were no separate leprosy hospital in Lund, and the lepers were buried in the periphery of the common cemeteries. Treponematosis could be identified only during the time period 1300-1536, and this in connection with the last buried individuals. Unspecific infections could be found with respect to all time periods. Periostitis was more common among the males during the earliest time period. Osteomyelitis, however, increased over time, being more common among the males. The frequency of traumatic lesions increased over time with regard to the male population of Lund, not the females. As there is no apparent covariation with regard to the osteological parameters, there is no basis for the conclusion that the health changes chronologically. Neither do we substantiate a detoriation nor an improvment from 990 to 1536 with regard to skeletal health. However, the proportion of subadults increases as we approach the later period 100-1536. This result is interpreted as an increased load of infectious diseases.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In past human populations, atherosclerosis has been identified in mummies from different regions of the world, and from a range of chronological periods (for extensive reviews see Chapters 3 and 4). This current study from Sweden aims to contribute to the limited evidence for atherosclerosis associated with human skeletal remains by presenting examples of atherosclerosis in another part of the body. We describe two well-preserved cemeteries in Åhus and Skänninge (1237-1536 CE) in present-day Sweden where several individuals with atherosclerosis of the internal carotid artery were discovered.
