Search for: [Abstract = "The necropolis, which was excavated in 2005\-2008 at site 1, is situated in an open field on the culmination of a broad, flat hill being part of a longitudinal range of hills separating the valleys of two larger rivers – namely, the Nidzica and Młyńska. The excavations resulted in the discovery of 35 inhumation graves, partly arranged in regular rows, dating to the early medieval period. The deceased were placed mostly in regular pits with their heads to the west. Very few traces of wooden coffins were recorded. 32 skeletons were classified in anthropological analysis. They present all age classes\: Infans\/Juvenis \(13 graves\), Juvenis\/Adultus \(8 graves, incl. 3 females and 3 males\), Adultus\/Maturus \(9 graves, incl. 3 females and 3 males\), and Senilis \(1 grave\). Various pathological changes and injuries were recorded\: teeth plaque, enamel hypoplasia, caries, spine and long bone degenerations, cribra orbitalia, Schmorl’s nodes. Thirteen mtDNA sequences were made which encompass almost the entire range of Western Eurasian macro\-haplogroups."]
