What is Green?

There is green stain around neck; specifically cervical 7 and thoracic 1 bones. This localized staining / colouration occurs when the bones contact with copper or bronze (necklaces or coins) during decomposition process.

Each individual bone can be viewed in Bone Viewer.

Vertebrae

Cervical Vertebrae
Thoracic Vertebrae
Lumbar Vertebrae

Human vertebrae are divided into 3 sections; cervical, thoracic and lumbar.

Cervical vertebrae consist of 7 bones supporting head. Thoracic vertebrae consist of 12 bones which is bearing ribs. Lumbar vertebrae are between thoracic cage and pelvis, and consist of 5 bones.

    About Digital Imaging for Anthropology

    Digitizing human skeletal remains to 3D models using 3D scanners and high-resoluton cameras in order to study the external morphology and habitual activities.

    The rasterization process on the surface is also applied to the 3D models with MeshLab parameterization and texturing techique.

    Each individual bone can be viewed in Bone Viewer.

    About Skeletal Remains

    These human remains originate from a late-medieval cemetery located in the old city in Hall, in the Tyrol region of Austria. The remains are from burials dating from the 16th to 18th century that were exhumed to make room for new burials when the cemetery reached capacity.

    The remains are on loan from the State Collection of Anthropology and Palaeoanatomy in Munich, Germany.
