S. Kirkpatrick Smith, "Skeletal Evidence for Militarism in Mycenaean Athens", Hesperia Supplement 43, New Directions in the Skeletal Biology of Greece (2009), pp. 99-109, at 105-6:
Skeleton AA 134, 19-year old male, with two healed wounds by edged weapons to head (left hand side, typical of injuries sustained in hand-to-hand combat btw right-handed fighter), and one non-healed, hence probably fatal wound: a terrible depressed fracture to the right parietal. Could be sling-stone, though it could also be a hand-thrown stone.
