SVAD Age Data: Colombia

<strong>Description</strong> The dental and skeletal data were collected from a skeletal collection housed at the Universidad de Antioquia in Medellín, Colombia. Individuals are between birth and 22 years of age. As part of the SVAD age indicator template, there are 64 age variables (columns) in the dataset, which include diaphyseal lengths and breadths, epiphyseal fusion/appearance of ossification centers, and dental development. All data was collected from the skeletal remains, except for the <em>in situ </em>dentition, which was scored using a portable Nomad Pro 2 handheld X-ray system. The data collection methodology can be found in Stull and Corron (2022) and Corron et al. (2021). <strong>Basic Key Code:</strong> *DL_L/R == diaphyseal lengths *DB_L/R == diapyseal lengths *EF_L/R == epiphyseal fusion *Oss == ossification *man_ and max_ == mandibular and maxillary dental development <strong>References</strong> Stull, K.E. and Corron, L.K.
