History: the Toponár population was probably formed within the East European decidious forest steppe belt or the neighboring parkland region. Analogy with the Molda­vian sample of the Chernakhovian culture is shown by the close similarity in the dendrogram (Figure 33). This phenomenon indicates that part of the Moldavian popu­lation had local roots during the Late Bronze Age (See Figure 31). These ancestors were later influenced by Iron Age and Late Scythian elements. Impressive similarity between Toponár and Virt is probably due to the similar geographical region represented by the origin of these two populations. No data on the continuity of the sample are available. Fig. 33: Dendrogram showing the analogies of the "Cherna­khovian" sample from Moldavia Üllő I (No. 94; cluster 3, Figure 34). The majority of this population is entirely Europoid. Mongoloid and Euro-mongoloid elements together make up 20 (?) percent of the sample. Analo­gies: Avar Period Homokmégy (No. 80), Kecel (No. 81), and Sükösd (No. 86). 4 Fig. 34: Dendrogram showing the analogies of Üllő I History: considering that the population of Üllő I was classified into cluster 3 one may think that this series was formed in the eastern steppe belt. It does not bear simi­larities with the contemporaneous populations of the Carpathian Basin with the exception of samples from the geographical area between the Danube and Tisza rivers. No continuity data are available on this population. Üllő II (No. 95 ; cluster 3, Figure 35). The greater part of this population is entirely Europoid, with 4 percent Euro-mongoloid elements. Analogy: Avar Period Kecel (No. 81). Fig. 35: Dendrogram showing the analogy of Üllő II History: Üllő II belongs to cluster 3. This position indicates that the place of origin of this series may have been somewhere in the eastern steppe belt. As far as con­temporaneous populations of the Carpathian Basin is concerned similarities occur only when this series is com­pared to contemporary samples from the area between the Danube and Tisza rivers. No survival data are known to date. Virt (No. 96: subcluster 1/b, Figure 36). This population is purely Europoid. Analogies: Avar Period Toponár (No. 93) and Ëelovce (No. 97), the С group from the Period of the Hunga­rian Conquest (No. 101), and Rusovce (No. 116) from the Árpád Period. Fig. 36: Dendrogram showing the analogies of Virt History: as far as suggested by the evidence of sub­cluster 1/b, this population may have been formed some­where in the East European parkland region or the forest steppe belt. Secondary similarities may be observed in relation to other contemporary series from the Carpathian Basin. There are two indications wich suggest the survival of this population. Both of these analogies come from the 10—11th century A. D. Reliable data on the survival of the Virt population is available only when the Rusovce sample is studied. Mutually primary similarities between these two series may be indicative of the Virt population's continuity. Éelovce (Zsély) (No. 97 ; subcluster 1/c, Figure 37). The majori­ty of this population is entirely Europoid. 5 percent of the sample is made up of Euro-mongoloids. Analogies: a 2nd century В. C. — 6th century A. D. sample from the Lower Kama region (Cheganda and Mazunino group) (No. 34), the 1st century A. D. Tuz Gyr south of the Lake Aral (No. 21), a 9—13th century A. D. sample from the area by the Cheptsa river (Polom and Mydlanshai) (No. 36), 9—13th century A. D. „eastern Slavic" „Polyans" (No. 61), the Avar Period Virt (No. 96), and group С from the Period of the Hungarian Conquest (No. 101). Fig. 37: Dendrogram showing the analogies of 2elovce History: the closest analogies suggest that the place of origin of the Éelovce population was probably between the Lower Kama region and the Cheptsa river, which also means the presence of "eastern Finnic" people in the environment (Figures 38 and 39). Secondary similarities within the Carpathian Basin may be seen only in the sample's geographical surroundings, with the population of the Northwestern region. Another similarity between this population and the С group from the Period of the Hungarian Conquest is probably more due to the two populations' common eastern origin than to local con­tinuity of the 2elovce series.
