125 of them are those of children and juvenile ones. Of the 244 grown-ups, 26 male and 14 female crania have been suitable morphological and metrical analysis. We were able to measure 51 males' and 46 females' postcranial skeleton. We have analysed the primary taxonomical characters on 16 male and 9 female crania, the secondary taxonomical characters on 14 male and 8 female ones. Because of their being fragmentary and incomplete 8 individuals' age and sex are indeterminable. We have identified the sex on the basis of the anatomical characters of the cranium and the skeleton. In case of children we have made the age at the time of the death by investigating the eruption of deciduous and permanent teeth. In establishing the age in case of grown-ups we have taken into consideration the ossification os sutures on the endocranial surface of the cranium and the VALLOIS' grades of the suture ossification of the ectocranial surface as well as degree of abrasio (after KÖRB ER). We have considered the ossification of the epiphyses on the postcranial bones, as well as the surface changing of the facies symphyseos ossis pubis (FARKAS 1972). In the relating evaluations, we have taken into consideration the MARTIN & SALLER (1957) age groups. In taking of absolute measurements we have followed the MARTIN-technique (1928). In the examination of facial flatness we have used the DEBETS & TOTH method (FARKAS (1972). Measurements and indices have been classified according to ALEXEYEV & DEBETS (1964) and facial profile has been evaluated according to the works of DEBETS (ALEXEYEV & DEBETS 1964) and TOTH (1958, 1967, 1968, 1969). In the analysis of secondary taxonomical characters we have used LIPTÁK' s works (1954, 1957, 1965, 1969). In taking of measure of long bones we have followed the ALEXEYEV-method (1966). Table 1.
