Project title

Micro-Ct of the lumbar vertebrae of La Chapelle-aux-Saints

Description of the project

Permission is requested to do the micro-ct of the lumbars and sacrum of the Neandertal of La Chapelle-aux-Saints. The goal is to do the trabecular analysis and see if there are differences compared to modern humans. Differences in the lumbar lordosis have been detected between modern humans and Neandertals and thus the question to be answered now is if the trabecular tissue has undergone changes in their orientation due to these changes in the posture.
