Estonian Genome Project
The Estonian Genome Project is a population-based biological database and biobank which was established in 2000 to improve public health in Estonia. It contains health records and biological specimens from a large percentage of the Estonian population.

Biological specimen
A biological specimen (also called a biospecimen) is a biological laboratory specimen held by a biorepository for research, education, or diagnostics.

Human biological specimens are stored in a type of biorepository called a biobank, and the science of preserving biological specimens is most active in the field of biobanking.

Tomb of Padru Jossu
The tomb or hypogeum of Padru Jossu is a prenuragic archaeological site situated in the territory of Sanluri, in the province of Medio Campidano.

The hypogeum was carved from the sandstone and consists of a rectangular chamber; the entrance of the tomb was located in the west wall. The site was used during the Chalcolithic and the Early Bronze Age by the people of the Monte Claro culture and the Bell Beaker culture. Among the unearthed funerary objects are reported pottery, necklaces, silver and copper artifacts and stone wrist-guards. The remains of animal skeletons are assumed to be ritual offerings in honor of the deceased.

About 20 skulls belonging to the Beaker layer show an heterogeneous population in which indigenous peoples (77% dolichocephalics) lived together with people who came from outside (23% brachycephalics).

In the past they have been variously known as stone bracers, stone arm-guards and armlets, although "stone wrist-guard" is currently the favoured terminology; and it is no longer thought that they were functional archer's bracers.
