Lotterhof Edit: Anthropological examination of two 10th century cemeteries uncovered at Szabadkígyós

Anthropological examination of the two 10th century cemeteries uncovered at Szabadkígyós EDIT LOTTERHOF At Szabadkígyós, in the area of the Model Farm 27, and in the area called Pál Grove 17 graves of the time of the conquest were uncovered. The antropological material can be seen at the JATE Anthropological Institute. Only altogether 6 skulls were suitable for a taxonomical analysis. The two cemeteries differ from each other, as in the area of the Model Farm Mediterranean and Nordic but in the area called Pál Grove Cromagnoid and Nordic elements can be found. Compared with other cemeteries of similar age it can be said that they differ from them because of the entire absence of Mongoloid elements. An exception are the cemeteries known as commons with which they show a fairly good conformity <(Kübekháza, Orosháza-Görbics tanya, Békés-Povádzug, and Szarvas-Ószőlő). 103
