Introduction: Building a Bioarchaeology of Care -- 1. Providing a context: thinking and theory in the bioarchaeology of care -- SECTION ONE :Case studies of caregiving: testing the boundaries of bioarchaeology of care research -- 2. Using the Index of Care on a Bronze-Age teenager with poliomyelitis or cerebral palsy: from speculation to strong inference -- 3. Cared for or outcast? A case for continuous care in pre-contact U.S. Southwest -- 4. The potential and challenges of constructing a bioarchaeology of care for a person with leprosy in the Late Medieval Period -- 5. Dealing with difference: the osteobiographies of two health-challenged women from medieval Poland -- 6. Surviving trepanation: approaching the relationship of violence and the care of war wounds through a case study from prehistoric Peru -- 7. Inferring disability and care provision in late prehistoric Tennessee -- 8. A post-mortem evaluation of the degree of mobility in an individual with severe kyphoscoliosis using direct digital radiography (DR) and multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) -- SECTION TWO:New horizons in bioarchaeology of care theory and practice -- 9. Mummy studies and the soft tissue evidence of care -- 10. The bioarchaeological evidence for elder care in Roman Britain -- 11. Caring for bodies or simply saving souls: The emergence of institutional care in Spanish Colonial America -- 12. Potential applications of the bioarchaeology of care methodological approach for historic institutionalized populations -- 13. Modeling care in prehistory through an analysis of hunter-gatherer social systems -- 14. Digitised Diseases: seeing beyond the specimen, understanding disease and disability in the past -- 15. What moral and ethical considerations should inform bioarchaeology of care analysis? -- 16. Highlighting the importance of the past: public engagement and communication from a bioarchaeology of care perspective -- CONCLUSION -- 17. The bioarchaeology of care: current status and future directions.

New Developments in the Bioarchaeology of Care evaluates, refines and expands existing concepts and practices in the developing field of bioarchaeological research into health-related care provision in the past. Evidence in human remains that indicates an individual survived with, or following, a serious pathology suggests this person most likely received some form of care from others. This observation was first made half a century ago, but it is only in the last five years that health-related caregiving has been accepted as a topic for bioarchaeology research. In this time, interest has grown exponentially. A focus on care provides a dynamic framework for examining the experiences of disease and disability in the past - at the level of the individual receiving care, and that of the community providing it. When caregiving can be identified in the archaeological record, bioarchaeologists may be able to offer unique insights into aspects of past lifeways. This volume represents the work of an international, diverse, cross-disciplinary group of contributors, each bringing their own particular focus, style and expertise to analyzing past health-related care. Nineteen chapters offer content that ranges from an introduction to the basic 'bioarchaeology of care' approach, through original case studies of care provision, to new theoretical perspectives in this emerging area of scholarship. This book creates a synergy that challenges our thinking about past health-related care behaviors and about the implications of these behaviors for understanding the social environment in which they took place.
