She was a young adult female, estimated between seventeen and twenty-one years of age at the time of death.

She was approximately 5 feet 2 inches tall — 156 centimeters, a stature within the range of other early western North American individuals.

She was in general good health relative to the skeletal evidence, though that evidence also revealed a harder truth about her childhood.

Radiographs of her long bones showed multiple episodes of arrested growth, visible in the bone structure as horizontal lines called Harris lines.

These lines form when nutritional stress or illness disrupts normal bone development during childhood and adolescence.
