A further methodologic comment on Recalcati et  al's response on the “skull with petrified ears” on the necessity of evidence-based anthropologic studies

We would like to thank Recalcati et  al for their response by stressing that we very much welcome the contributions to anthropology and paleopathology that may arise from the field of clinical medicine, including dermatology. It is not our intention to promote a separation between areas of knowledge1,2 (suffice it to say that one of us, F.M.G., is a physician by training); on the contrary, we wish to promote the integration of different approaches toward the establishment of a problem-solving strategy capable of identifying diseases in the past.
