Wiener Laboratory Publications
In addition to the many publications generated by researchers at the Wiener Laboratory and published in other venues (including the American Journal of Physical Anthropology, the Journal of Archaeological Science, and the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology), the Laboratory issues occasional volumes of its own.
Occasional Wiener Laboratory Series (OWLS)
OWLS is a new subset of the School’s Hesperia Supplement monographic series under the general editorship of Dr. Sherry C. Fox, director of the Wiener Laboratory. Although the topics covered are scientific in nature, reflecting the interests of the Wiener Laboratory, it is hoped that the books will appeal to a wide archaeological audience. Authors are therefore encouraged to avoid overly technical discussions, and clearly indicate why their work is important to researchers outside their immediate field.
Guidelines for OWLS authors and potential authors and editors are available (PDF).
1. New Directions in the Skeletal Biology of Greece,
edited by Lynne A. Schepartz, Sherry C. Fox, and Chryssi Bourbou. (2009)
Physical anthropology, the study of human skeletal remains, has assumed an increasingly important role in the archaeology of Greece over the past 30 years, both in the field and in interpretive research. In addition to including stimulating case studies ranging in date from the Palaeolithic to modern periods, the 17 chapters in this book provide an overview of bioarchaeological research across Greece and Cyprus.
