Abstract:
In the past decade, in addition to using traditional naked-eye morphological analysis, two-dimensional measurement and data comparison, more and more scholars placed great emphasis on the application of new technologies available and supported the study of ancient human remains from a multi-disciplinary perspective. Through outlining recent advances in the application of new techniques on research of ancient human remains, this paper briefly summarized the characteristics of present research and gave an outlook on future research of ancient human remains in China.
