  • There is no difference between the percentage of a cappuccina graves and simple pit burials who had at least one LEH (𝜒2= 0.03; p=0.862), or the total number of LEH that each individual had during their lifetimes (t=0.95; p=0.35) 

    • Simple pit burials only had a 2% higher LEH prevalence, but a cappuccina graves had a higher average number of LEH per individual (see Figures 4 & 5).

  • There is no difference between the percentage of males and females who had at least one LEH (𝜒2=0.26; p=0.61), or the total number of LEH males and females had during their lifetimes (t=0.94; p=0.37)

    •  Male individuals had a 12% higher LEH prevalence than females, and females had a higher average number of LEH per individual (see Figures 6 & 7)

  • There is no difference between the number of LEH that individuals buried in the East and West necropoleis had during their lifetimes (t=1.10; p=0.28)

    • The sample size for the East necropolis was too small to examine differences in the prevalence of LEH between necropoleis; however, individuals buried in the East necropolis had more LEH per individual (see Figure 10). 

  • There is no difference between the percentage of adults and subadults who had at least one LEH (𝜒2=0.55; p=0.46), or the total number of LEH that each individual had during their lifetimes (t=0.60; p=0.55)

    • Subadults had a 16% higher LEH prevalence and higher average number of LEH per individual than adults (see Figures 8 & 9).
