Further information was obtained using the dendrograms drawn on the basis of the sample's significant analogies. Series displaying primary similarities were separated with heavy outline within the dendrogram. In order to help in the correct historical interpretation of this patterning complementary dendrograms are also shown which summarize samples from the sites studied from outside the Carpathian Basin. These samples have primary analogies with those sample originating from the Carpathian Basin. The only exceptions to this are the series which form subcluster 1/a and have primary analogies within the same subcluster. In such situations the similarity may not be used in drawing conclusions for reasons previously mentioned in connection with subcluster 1/a. The general characteristics of the 22 Avar Period series may be summarized as follows on the basis of the most important features: Fig. 9: Dendrogram showing the analogies of "Sarmatians' from the Middle Volga river region Fig. 10: Dendrogram showing the analogies of "Sarmatians' from the Lower Volga river region Adorján, Tanya (No. 76; cluster 3, Figure 7). The greater part of this population is unambiguously Europoid with some 10 percent Euro —Mongoloid components. Analogy: Avar Period Kecel (No. 81). Fig. 7: Dendrogram showing the analogy of Adorján As far as the similarity with the „Germanic" Solothurn is concerned, these two series may be related because of their common "Sarmatian" origin. This is confirmed by Solothurn's position within subcluster 2/b and by the fact that this sample is somewhat separated from the rest of the "Germanic" series. Some close analogies also support this theory (Figure 11). This population reached Western Europe probably while fleeing from the Hun invasion. It is possible that they occupied parts of the Carpathian Basin during a transitional period. History : as far as is suggested by the evidence of cluster 3, this population may have been formed somewhere in the eastern steppe belt. There is only one similar contemporary group within the Carpathian Basin which belongs to the same geographical environment in a wider sense: both come from the area between the Danube and Tisza rivers. No data are known on the continuity of the population. Alattyán-Tulát (No. 77, cluster 3). The greater part of this population is purely Europoid. Euro—Mongoloids make up only 2 percent. There are no analogies. History: this series again belongs to cluster 3 which suggests that it may have had its origins in the eastern steppe belt. On the basis of its relationships within cluster 3 it can only be compared to material from the region between the Danube and Tisza rivers. No survival data on this population are available. Ártánd (No. 78; subcluster 2/b, Figure 8). This population is purely Europoid. Analogies: two Sarmatian series from the Volga river region (4th century B. C.-4th century A. D. No. 24, 25), a "western Germanic" series from Solothurn (6th-7th century A. D. No. 70). Fig. 8: Dendrogram showing the analogies of Ártánd History: as suggested by the dendrogram, the Artánd series may have been developed together with "Sarmatian" populations of the Volga region (Figures 9 and 10). It does not bear any similarities to the contemporaneous groups of the Carpathian Basin. No survival data are available. Fig. 11: Dendrogram showing the analogies of Solothurn Backo Petrovo Selo (Péterréve) (No. 79; subcluster 2/b, Figure 12). This population is entirely Europoid. Analogies: "Sauromatian" sample from the Lower Volga and from the 7—4th century В. C. Western Kazahstan region (No. 22), the „Sarmatian" sample (No. 23) from 4th century В. C. to 2nd century A. D. Western Kazakhstan, and the 3—5th century A. D. sample from the Upper Kama region (Mitinsk and Demenki) (No. 35). Fig. 12: Dendrogram showing the analogies of Backo Petrovo Selo History: the population of Backo Petrovo Selo probably was formed among the "Sauromatian —Sarmatian" groups of Western Kazahstan and the Lower Volga region (Figures 13 and 14). According to Figure 15 analogies from the upper region of the Kama river may only be present because of a common "Sarmatian" background. No significant similarities are to be seen with contemporary series from the Carpathian Basin. On the other hand, no dramatic differences occur when this sample is compared to others in the geographical distribution area in a wider sense, between the Danube and Tisza rivers. No survival data are available on this population. 7 Alba Regia XX. 97
