70 Section HUMAN DIVERSITY DERMATOGLYPHICS OF ABKHAZO-ADYGHEAN PEOPLES OF THE CAUCASUS Heet Henriette Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia Populations of Caucasus are dermatogyphically distinct, being generally intermediate between those of Western Asia and Europe (Heet, 1976; Heet, Dolinova, 2002). <...> Previous data on Abkhazo-Adyghean groups are scarce. <...> In this report, dermatoglyphic data on 51 groups of Caucasus, totaling about 10200 males, are analyzed. <...> Two multidimensional analyses were conducted using a set of key diagnostic traits. <...> Generally, the Abkhazo-Adyghean samples are similar and homogeneous. <...> The mean Generalized Dermatoglyphic Distance (GDD) equals 8.4, which is nearly twice less than that between groups of the entire Caucasus. <...> Among the speakers of Caucasian languages, Abkhazo-Adygheans are closest to Kartvelians and Iranians (GDD ranges within 6.1–6.3) and somewhat less similar to the Turkic-speaking groups except Nogais and to Dagestanians (7.1–7.4), being furthest from the Nakh-speaking people. <...> The South Caucasoid Complex is lower in Abkhazo-Adyghean and Kartvelian speakers (58.0 and 58.7, respectively) than in Turks (61.0), Dagestanians (62.3), Armenians (62.7), and Iranians (62.9). <...> Two signifi cant principal components differentiate Northern and Southern Caucasoids. <...> All Abkhazo-Adyghean groups except Cherkess are included in the larger cluster (2/3 of the samples), occupying a central position there. <...> Cherkess group take a central position in the second cluster. <...> PALEODEMOGRAPHY OF THE 10TH IN THE TISZБNTЪL (HUNGARY) Jбnos Istvбn1 , Szathmбry Lбszlу2 1Institute of Environmental Science, College of Nyнregyhбza, Nyнregyhбza, Hungary 2 Department of Evolutionary Zoology and Human Biology, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary Result of craniological studies suggests that the structure of populations living in the Great Hungarian Plain (Hungary) might have changed considerably between the Age of the Hungarian Conquest (10th century) and the Arpadian Age (11th–13th century). <...> This conclusion follows from the analysis of skeletons from cemeteries dating both to the Age of the Hungarian Conquest and to the Arpadian Age. <...> Given the above result, the basic aim of this study was to perform comparative paleodemographic analysis of representative 10th and 11th–13th-century skeletal populations excavated from cemeteries in the Tiszбntъl region, the eastern part of the Great Hungarian Plain. <...> The samples were separated into two groups according to archaeological periods (the Age of the Hungarian Conquest <...>
