the average of females approaches the mean value of Europoid and Mongoloid group averages. , Simotical subtense (SS): averages of both sexes reflect a Europoid character. 1 male (Inv. No. 9405) and 1 female (Inv. No. 9416) are of Europo-Mongoloid character, as far as this characteristic is concerned. Dacryal index (ID): male average presents a Europoid value while that of females a Europo-Mongoloid value. The dacryal index of male skull Inv. No. 9407 is similar to that of Europo-Mongoloids and the dacryal index of female skulls Inv. No. 9405 is similar to that of Mongoloids. Simotical index (IS) analysis brought results similar to dacryal index analysis. The male average is typical for Europoids, the female average is typical for Europo-Mongoloids. 1 maie (Inv. No. 9416) has an IS value approaching that of Europo-Mongoloids. The IS value of female skull Inv. No. 940 5 is close to that of Mongoloids. Nasal spine angle (Martin 75^) was possible to calculate for 1 male skull and the result was a Europoid value. We have data for 2 females. Skull Inv. No. 940 5 displayed a EuropoMongoloid value while skull Inv. No. 9415 a Mongoloid one. In the last case all other primary taxonomical characteristics were markedly Europoid. I have also analysed the indices supplementing the primary taxonomical characteristics and fossa canina values (TÓTH 1962, 1964, 1967, 1968). The averages of incisura maxillo-malare indices (IMMS: IMMC) are of Europoid character for both sexes. The male fossa canina is very varied. Deep and shallow measurements were all present (thus the average is medium). Females are characterized by a more homogeneus medium and deep fossa canina value group. The facial flatness index (IC) value (-15. 7) also supports the Europoid character of the series. The series collected at Csepel is Europoid. 1 female (Inv. No. 9405) and 1 male (Inv. No. 9416) skull each presents some Mongoloid influence, these can be classified as EuropoMongoloids. The female Inv. No. 940 5 had several primary taxonomical characteristics with similar values to those of Mongoloids. This is why the averages of females frequently approach those of Europo-Mongoloids within this series with a very small number of cases, though all the other individuals are Europoid. Secondary taxonomical characteristics were possible to analyse on 7 skulls. 5 skulls presented the characteristics of the Europid great race (2 males and 3 females). The features of the Nordic race are present mixed with some undetermined elements on male skull Inv. No. 9417 and on female skull Inv. No. 9418. Male skull Inv. No. 9410 and female skull Inv. No. 9430 bear Atlanto-Mediterranean characteristics. There is 1 undetermined Brachycran female (Inv. No. 9415). The primary taxonomical analysis results are supported by 2 Europo-Mongoloid-like skulls. These are male Inv. No. 9416 and female Inv. No. 9405. On the last one the features of the Pamyrian race can be recognized as Europid elements (Table 13). COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS The limited number of cases within the series and their accidental nature restricted the choice of comparative methods. I have drawn 10 other Avar-age cemetery series into the present study. They were taken from the 6th to the 9th Centuries. TOPOGRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENTS I represented the mutual relations of three absolute measurements (Martin 8, 45, 48) and three indices (8: 1, 52:51, 54:55) examining 10 comparative series in Figures 1-10. The males present the most marked resemblance to the males of Előszállás-Bajcsihegy and Üllő I, though as far as the orbital cavity index - upper face height and orbital cavity index - nasal index correlations are concerned Előszállás-Bajcsihegy differs considerably. The greatest difference could be found between the male group of this series and those of Budapest-Népstadion and of Környe. 2 6
