SUMMARY:'Acute Rickets' - Appraisal of Rickets and Scurvy\, and their Co-Oc
 curence\, in Past Communities
DESCRIPTION:Conférencière invitée : Megan Brickley\, Professor and Tier
  I Canada Research Chair in the Bioarchaeology of Human Disease\, Departme
 nt of Anthropology\, McMaster University.The first clear description of r
 ickets and scurvy as distinct diseases was provided by Thomas Barlow in 18
 83.  Barlow also describes a number of cases where the two diseases occur
  together\, which had previously been described as ‘acute rickets’ –
  a term Barlow suggested abolishing.  The range of socio-cultural interpr
 etations that can be made regarding rickets and scurvy (caused by deficien
 cy of vitamins D and C) make them a valuable source of information on many
  aspects of life in the past\, and paleopathologists have recently made si
 gnificant advances in their diagnosis.  Recognition of cases of co-occurr
 ence would provide more nuanced information on the experience of those in 
 past communities\, but to date few such cases have been identified.  This
  paper will consider recent advances and potential future research possibi
 lities for recognition and interpretation of these conditions.Conférence
