Natural history scientists, namely paleontologists, archaeologists and forensic anthropologists, have been reconstructing life-histories, circumstances of death and burial environments from juvenile human skeletal remains for a long time. Morphological assessment of juvenile skeletal remains in modern environments shows that variation in and plasticity of the skeleton may be explained in terms of ecological and neotaphonomic patterns and processes observed in the present to better understand the past. This research program is a first effort to integrate different experimental and theoretical approaches about the juvenile human skeleton that are united under the umbrella of actuopaleontological studies.

自然史科学家，即古生物学家、考古学家和法医人类学家，长期以来一直在从青少年人类骨骼遗骸中重建生活史、死亡环境和埋葬环境。对现代环境中幼年骨骼遗骸的形态评估表明，骨骼的变化和可塑性可以用现在观察到的生态和新农学模式和过程来解释，以更好地了解过去。这项研究计划是第一次努力整合不同的关于青少年人类骨骼的实验和理论方法，这些方法统一在精算古生物学研究的保护伞下。
