Rákoskeresztúr, Kr. 6289 /Grave without serial number/. A strongly damaged, post mortem deformed skull. Basal section absent. Fe­male, aged 45-55. Coronal suture ossified, dentition faulty, several alveoli ab­sorbed, Glabella I, forehead slightly retroclinate. Mastoidei small, mandible gracile, characteristic also for entire bony structure. Pentagonoid in superior view, medium long, wide, brachycranial . Auriculo-vertical index medium. Despite fragmental portions of occipital section, protuberantia occipitalis . externa discernible, rather strong. Forehead stenometopic, narrow, arcus superciliaris expressed, medially including a 1 cm long sutura metopica. Orbital high, nose narrow, nasal bones narrow, slightly arcuately declinate. Margin of nasal aper­ture anthropine. Calculated stature /after long bones/ 145 cm, short. Suffering from arti­cular diseases /established by Dr. I. LENGYEL, on the basis of chemical tests/. Brachycranial - Europoide /alpine/. Soroksár, factory, Nr. 6292 /Grave 3/. A well-preserved cranium,female, juvenile. Upper margin of orbital sharp. Mastoidei small, mandible narrow. Synchondrosis sphenooccipitalis not yet ossi­fied, M-3 still in mandibular alveoli on both sides. Pentagonoid in superior view, medium, medium broad, on lower limit of value interval, brachycranial. Medium high in lateral view, also by indices. Glabella I, forehead steep, long, petrion area wide H-shaped. Protuberantia occipitalis externa weakly developed, weak curvoocoipitaly. Tapeinocranial in posterior view. Occipital lines weakly developed. Forehead medium wide, metriometopic, morphological facial height low, also upper face very low. Wide euryprosopic /index/, orbital mesoconch, nose mesorrhinian, nasal root wide, fossa praenasalis present, spina nasalis 2. Nasal bones slightly arcuate. Fossa canina deep, 4,8 mm. Zygomatic arc medium wide. Palatoalveolar index short,also index of inner palate. Lower face orthognathous . Angle of nasal projection of a very high value, face strongly profiled. No stature can be calculated from long bones. Although the measurements of the juvenile skull have been given, they were not included in the summary eva­luation. An Identification as to type should also be avoided,except for defining it as Europoide. Rákoshegy. Nr. 9022 /Grave 4/. Lateral parts and basal section absent. Female, aged 25-30. Gracile bones. Mandible narrow, teeth hardly worn, sutures open. Oval in superior view, medium, mesocranial, but approaching dolichoorany . In lateral view Glabella I, çy^ooccipital, protuberantia occipitalis externa small, no trace of occipital lineae. Wide, smooth forehead divided by sutura me­topica. Face flat, fossa canina shallow, orbital round, high, hypsiconch, nasal root very wide; hyperchamaerrhinian. Nasal bones flattened, perhaps deformed /or a pathologic oase/. Lower margin of apertúra piriformis infantile. Alveolar pro­gnathism. No stature could be determined after the incomplete skeleton. On the basis of the analysis of the facial profile, the skull is Mongoloidé. Type-diagnosti­cally, a low-faced variety of the Mongoloids, with Europoide features.
