Distance investigations In looking for the parallels of the Tengelic series, the males had to be excluded, owing partly to the small number of Individuals partly to their great deviation value. The number of Individuals of the female series is also rather low, but since the standard deviation of their metric values is relatively small, the results obtained may, though with certain restrictions, serve as a basis for inferring certain connections. Investigations were made with Penrose's method (1954), and by evaluating the following 10 cranial measurements: maximum cranial length (l), basi-nasal length (5), maximum cranial breadth (8), minimum frontal breadth (9), basi-bregmatic height (17), basi-alveolar length (40), bizygomatic breadth (45), upper facial height"" (48), orbital height (52), nasal breadth (54). In p all cases where the D value, calculated by the ten characteP ristics, was 2.00 or below it, further calculations were made, including the orbital breadth (51) and the nasal height (55). By the results of these extended calculations only those series 2 were regarded as standing close to Tengelic whose D value proved to be lower than 2.00. The comparative investigations were extended both temporally and spatially towards all regions whose populations might have influenced, directly or indirectly, the evolvement of the morphological picture of the female population at Tengelic. The following series were drawn into the investigations; a) Central Danubian Basin; VI-IX centuries: Adorján-Tanya, Alattyán, Ártánd, Homokmégy, Jutas, Kecel, Nővé Zámky, Szeged-Pehértó "A n , Szeged-Kundomb, Szentes-Kaján, Tiszaderzs, Üllő I—II, b) Moravian Basin: IX century: Mikulïïic'e cemeteries 1, 2, 3, 4.
