However, clinical data showed that activity does not necessarily increase the likelihood of degenerative joint changes (DJC) and that exercise results in healthier joints. We tested whether individuals with continuous repetitive biomechanical efforts (Group 1) were more likely to exhibit EC and if occupations known to exert strenuous but discontinued efforts (Group 2) would more likely cause DJC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-nine males with known occupations from Portuguese identified collections were used: shoemakers and carpenters (Group 1), workers (Group 2), and civil servants, and shop assistants as a control group. Major upper and lower limb joints and entheses sites were used. DJC and EC were tested between occupations - while controlling for age (overall approach) - and within occupation (occupation-specific approach). RESULTS The overall approach showed that age - as a covariant - had a significant impact on DJC and EC development (p < 0.05), with occupation being non-significant (p > 0.05) despite the variability in the mean-values of lesions. The occupation-specific approach showed a significant variability of DJC and EC correlations, within and between occupations, with no clear trend of DJC and EC development according to occupation. DISCUSSION The results showed that exploring overall patterns might conceal occupation-specific joint and muscle use, emphasizing age as a major contributor of changes; and that the occupation-specific approach highlighted particular aspects associated with occupations, allowing for a more informative assessment of strenuous repetitive or discontinuous activity-related technical gestures and their impact on skeletal biology.

The current interpretation suggests that its socioeconomic and funerary territories encompassed the l ow r Tagus, its tributaries and the granitic sectors of the Mora–Pavia area in the Alentejo. Archaeothanatological analyses indicated mutually e xclusive funerary practices: secondary depositions at Room A and primary and sec ondary depositions at Room B. Polished stone tools are evenly distributed in both rooms, w hile ornaments, pottery, flint blades and sheep/goat phalanges are almost restricted to Room A. Fragmentation and Depositions in Pre and Proto-Hist oric Portugal 72 Such distribution patterns reflects the coexistence of distinct funerary practices in which Room A is part of a much complex behaviour that inc luded primary depositions, exhumation, transpor...
