Research in Anthropology is a qualitative endeavor as well as a science. In this paper, we argue that an emphasis on high quantities of samples can obscure valuable research. Anthropology is more of a qualitative field, in which even minimal data finds provide valuable insight. We will use as a case study a Greco-Roman skeleton excavated from a site in Ierapetra, Greece which presents pathologies and abnormalities not found in other skeletons from the same population. We used the sciatic notch as well as different sites on the skull to determine sex. The skeleton overall had very gracile features that pointed to female. Age of the skeleton was determined using the auricular surface in conjunction with suture closure. The skeleton was on the...
