Abstract | Forty morphological characteristics of the permanent dentition in samples ranging from the Late Archaic (ca. 1500 BC.) to Middle Mississippian (ca. AD 1200) time periods are scored for 97 expressions. The expressions of the characteristics are examined for temporal and spatial variation using correspondence analysis. Approximately 25 % of the characteristics exhibit stability of expression through time and with respect to geographical location.
The results obtained for the prehistoric Ohio Amerindians are compared to other Amerindian groups in eastern North America and to other world populations. A number of character expressions are found to be associated with various population groupings.
