- The proposed research focuses on a validation study to test the accuracy and variability of different sampling areas within the length of the selected skeletal element. To the year of publication (2016), that was the first study evaluating different segments of the rib to test the impact of sampling area on existing age estimation methods through cortical histomorphometry. Previous studies had tested sequential segments or the same segment of the skeletal element within and between individual (see 10.1111/j.1556-4029.2007.00388.x)
