Scientists Discover Traces of Military Service on a 19th Century Soldier’s Teeth.
Scientists Discover Traces of Military Service on a 19th Century Soldier’s Teeth. A remarkable discovery by scientists at the Olomouc Archaeological Center in the Czech Republic has shed new light on the harsh realities of military life in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The analysis of a soldier’s skeletal remains unearthed in the town of Majetín in the Olomouc region has revealed the first physical evidence of a long suspected military practice the use of teeth to open gunpowder cartridges. This finding not only confirms historical accounts but also provides a rare glimpse into the daily struggles and physical toll endured by soldiers of that era. The skeleton discovered in 2012 belonged to a man aged between 30 and 50 years standing approximately 174 cm tall. Anthropologist Lukáš Šín who led the study noted that the soldier’s lower incisors showed clear signs of repeated mechanical stress. The soldier’s teeth were weakened through repeated activity and this stress could have resulted in the crowns of the teeth breaking Šín explained. Historical records indicate that soldiers during this period loaded their firearms by biting into paper cartridges containing gunpowder and bullets. They would tear open the cartridges with their teeth separate the powder and pour it into the muzzle of their weapons. While this practice has been documented in military manuals direct physical evidence had been elusive until now.
