New research shows that a 5,000-year-old lavish tomb in Spain contains the remains of a woman, not a man as previously assumed. The study used a new method that analyzes tooth enamel to determine sex when DNA is not available.
This illustration provided by the ATLAS research group of the University of Seville in July 2023 depicts “The Ivory Lady” who was discovered in a tomb in Valencina, Spain, dated between 3,200 and 2,200 years ago. When archaeologists first discovered the ornate tomb, they assumed it was for a man. But now they’ve determined the remains are those of a woman by analyzing tooth enamel, according to a study published Thursday, July 6, 2023, in the journal Scientific Reports.
