Among the Western intelligentsia, parenting is synonymous with teaching. We are cajoled into beginning our child's education in the womb and feel guilty whenever a 'teaching moment' is squandered. This paper will argue that this reliance on teaching generally, and especially on parents as teachers, is quite recent historically and localised culturally. The majority follow…

AbstractToys – objects that we can recognise and confidently assert were toys, either through specific association with children, or through comparison with objects that we 'know' were toys in other periods – are absent in the settlement archaeology of most pre- and proto-historic periods. There is good reason to argue that children played with things,…
This article aims to provide an overview of some of the more important developments in the bioarchaeology of childhood over the past decade. Analysis of publication trends in the major osteoarchaeology and physical anthropology journals demonstrated a rise in research papers dealing with skeletal remains of children, with dietary and palaeopathological studies especially predominant. Innovations…
AbstractAbstractBreastfeeding and weaning behaviour in prehistoric and later populations can be investigated using biomolecular studies of archaeological bones and teeth. This involves the analysis of isotope ratios which are indicative of diet. Nitrogen isotopes have been used for this purpose for some years, but there is increasing evidence to suggest that other chemical elements can…
Very few studies to date have presented contextualised interpretations of bioarchaeological evidence from Roman urban environments. This paper compares and contrasts the osteological data for childhood health from two urban centres, one at the centre and the other at the margins of the Roman Empire – Rome and London. We synthesise recently published and newly…
