Dr. T. Tóth szerk.: Studia historico-anthropologica (Anthropologia Hungarica 10. Budapest, 1971)
3.000 individuals has been studied in the departmental collection during the twenty-five years under discussion. This relates to the investigations conducted according to the traditional morphometric - morphoscopic program. In view of the fact that the historico-anthropological collection of the Department is not uniform as regards the state of preservation - therefore the suitability of elaboration - then the about 3.000 skeletal units published hitherto represent about 50 per cent of the total collection. However, the general scientific value of the series unsuitable or less suitable for a detailed anthropological analysis should also be taken into account. It may yet be mentioned that among the associate (not staff) scientific workers of the Department, Gy. Regöly-Mérei (l96la, b, 1962a, b, 1964, 1965, 1970) elaborated paleopatbologically the material deriving from 9 Roman and Avar Epoch localities, and I. Lengyel (I963, 1964, 1965, 1968a, b) made paleophysiological analyses (the identification of blood groups ,citrates , calcium, phosphorus, carbonate, collagens and other proteins) on samples taken from about I5OO skeletons preserved in our collection. Similarly, staff workers of various other anthropological institutes in Hungary have also studied series of our collection in the course of diverse investigations. The workers of the Department gave a number of lectures during the last twenty-five years on the occasion of the First and the Second Anthropological Symposia held in Budapest (1959, 1967), as well as in the Anthropological Section of the Hungarian Biological Society and in itinerary congresses, as well as at the conferences and in the societies of the various auxiliary sciences. With respect to the international anthropological congresses, J. Nemeskéri lectured in Philadelphia (1956), Paris (i960), and Moscow (1964), while the present author lectured also in Moscow, on the occasion of the Seventh International Anthropological and Ethnological Congress (I964). The staff research workers also went cn several study trips abroad, thus to the Soviet Union (M. Malán, J. Nemeskéri, T. Tóth), Poland (P. Lipták), Bulgaria (P. Lipták), Czechoslovakia (P. Lipták), Romania (J. Nemeskéri, S. . Wenger^ 1959), and Austria (Gy. Dezső).
