MICROSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF DENTAL CALCULUS FROM TWO PREHISTORIC AND ONE HISTORIC INDIVIDUALS, 10PE20, 10OE5968, AND FORT BOISE, IDAHO

Author(s): Linda Scott Cummings

Year: 1998

Summary

Three samples of dental calculus were removed from three separate individuals in Idaho.

Samples from sites 10PE20 and 10OE5968 represent two prehistoric individuals who lived

approximately 1000 years ago. The third sample, excavated at Fort Boise, represents an individual

that was buried between 1864 and 1889. In addition to identifying the contents of these three

calculus samples, a comparison is made between the two prehistoric and single historic records.
