​Anthropological remains from Feature 3 at the site Borjád-Kenderföldek

Abstract

Feature 3 contained the remains of the inhumation of a single individual. The buried person was a female aged between 23 and 39 years. It was not possible to reconstruct her skull due to its poor, fragmented, distorted, and incomplete condition. Therefore the skull could only partially be analyzed. The same applies to the long bones. As a result, the height of the individual could not be determined. Traces of lesions on the bones could not be observed. The remains allowed to determine only that the deceased was a relatively short, dolichomorph woman of gracile stature. She possibly belonged to the Gracile Mediterranean subtype, which is relatively common amidst the population of the Lengyel Culture.
