Reconsideration of bone postmortem interval estimation by UV-induced autofluorescence
TL;DR: It could be shown that there is a correlation between the PMI and fluorescence colour, but not with fluorescence intensity, making bone fluorescent properties inappropriate as the sole criterion for deciding whether a specimen is included or excluded for further forensic investigation.

TL;DR: A strategy following a modern diagnostic algorithm and working under strict ancient DNA regime for the identification of medieval human plague victims is described and all precautions taken are sufficient to prevent external sample contamination and fulfill the criteria of authenticity.
Estimating the chance of success of archaeometric analyses of bone: UV-induced bone fluorescence compared to histological screening
TL;DR: This study visually determined the UV-induced autofluorescence of 76 horse bone cross-sections from prehistoric archaeological sites of varying environmental and chronological background to create a screening method designed not only for daily laboratory practice, but also for archaeologists who need to pre-select the most promising samples to send out to a contractor for archaeometric analyses.

TL;DR: Although clear kinship relations among the infants remain unconfirmed, a relationship could also be indicated by the positioning of the bodies in the burial pit, and interpersonal relationships were likely the decisive factor for the multiple burial.

TL;DR: In this paper, the titles and legends for Figures 1-3 were incorrectly switched, and the figures themselves were in correct order, but the title and legend currently appearing with Figure 1 belong with Figure 3.
