Cemetery of TÍMÁR I: Grave 2 - Thickening caused by inflammation on the diaphy ses of ulnae. - Grave 6 - Caudal sacrum bifidum. - Grave 8 - A large-sized exostosis on humeri, above the tuberositas deltoidea, continuously of the crista tuberculi majoris, in the opposite direction of the caput humeri. - Grave 9- Both sides of perforatio fossae olecrani humeri. - Grave 10 - Both sides of perforatio fossae olecrani humeri, cranial sacrum bifidum. - Grave 13 - Both sides of perforatio fossae olecrani humeri. - Grave 18 Osteoma of small size (12 mm x 5 mm) on the occipital bone, on the linea nuchae inferior. Grave 24 - On the level of the absent 1st molar on the left side of the torus palatínus of maxillae there is a hole (4 mm in diameter) leading into the sinus maxillaris. Fractura compléta with dislocatio on the right tibia. - Grave 26- Fractura compléta with dislocation the left tibia. - Grave 27 - There is a hole (5 mm in diameter) on the level of the linea glutea inferior on the right os pubis. Cemetery of TÍMÁR II: Grave 1 - Both sides of perforatio fossae olecrani humeri. Grave 3 - There is a bone hunch (6 mm in diamater) on the right side of os occipitale, on the level of linea nuchae inferior. The characteristics of the non-measurable material are in Tables 6 and 7. GENERAL CHARACTERIZATION The five measurable skulls from the two cemeteries do not make it possible to characterize the populations of Tímár or to compare them to other series. The taxonomically évaluable male skull is Cromagnoid and the two female ones are of Mediterranean character. The analysis of skeletal bones reveals that eurybrachia is characteristic for the majority of humeri. The ulnae are platolen. Femora have weak pilaster or no pilasters at all, they are eurymer in the majority. Tibiae are euryknem or mesoknem. The analysable finds of the two cemeteries of Tímár cannot be separated anthropologically. This can be attributed to the fact that none of these materials represents the population of the cemeteries of Tímár either from qualitative or quantitative points of view. REFERENCES ALEXEYEV, V.P.
