Abstract

Excavations at the Pawon Cave Site in 2019 and 2021 from boxes T2U1, T2S1, T3U1, T3S1, and T4S1 led to the discovery of 976 specimens of animal teeth that could be used to reconstruct the past of the Pawon’s Cave Site environment. To determine the level of animal taxa to the location of the teeth, taxonomic and anatomical analyses were carried out, while environmental reconstruction was carried out through environmental analysis based on the distribution of faunal functional groups by Julien Louys (2012). The research method consists of six steps, namely formulation, implementation, data collection, data processing, analysis, and interpretation. As a result, 120 individual animals from 13 different families were found at the Pawon Cave site with the dominance of the Cercopithecidae family in each four units of analysis. However, it is also necessary to the contribution of protein produced, so that large animals (megafauna), such as the Families Suidae, Bovidae, and Cervidae, have more potential to become main game animals for consumption, while the Families Cercopithecidae and Hystricidae become a complement to a variety of foods consumed. In addition, jewelry from shark teeth and canine teeth of Carnivora, Cercopithecidae and Suidae were also found with traces of modification in the form of perforation of the roots of the teeth and sharpening of the dental crowns. Thus, the human inhabitants of Pawon Cave are hunters who can utilize all the potential of animals from terrestrial, arboreal and aquatic habitats around the Pawon’s Cave Site.

Abstract

Identification of archaeological human teeth findings using a non-destructive method such as a radiograph is limited. Various methods have been used for archaeological human teeth findings, including 2D and 3D radiographs. This study examines the extent to which it is used, its advantages, and its limitations using the scoping review method. The search for articles referred to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analyses (PRISMA-ScR) was conducted through PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, published from 2012-2022. Articles were screened and assessed for eligibility. The initial search found 249 articles. After evaluating the eligibility criteria, 15 articles were selected. Studies addressing the criteria and other aspects were identified. Based on a study conducted on articles that met the criteria, it was concluded that the radio identification method has been utilized for various identification and that the most frequently used radio identification method is cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
