Abstract
Iliac crest and femoral bone specimens from four Greenlandic mummies were assessed. Estimated ages at death were calculated, cortical bone mass and bone histological variables from the cortical bone specimens and trabecular bone volume, surface area and diameter from the iliac crest specimens were measured. The cortical bone did not show pathological changes. The trabecular bone variables indicated that one woman was osteoporotic.
