Our study was based on the osteological material from a rural cemetery of the settlement Rozhdestveno
I (Odintsovo, Moscow region). <...> The material was obtained due to salvage excavations in 2006-2007 under
the direction of Mikhail Gonyanyi. <...> The burial site could be dated by the 15th-16th centuries AD according
to the mass material and specifi c artefacts. <...> High percentage of children’s mortality (42%) and the analysis of the
stress markers on the skeletons of adult individuals permit to suppose the unfavorable living conditions in
the community. <...> Both among males and females (totally in 12.6% of cases), there is a complex of features
which allows us to speak about a specifi c infection (treponemal). <...> The most remarkable manifestations were
found on the female skeleton (20-29 years old, burial 122). <...> In spite of partial preservation and in some cases
taphonomical destruction of the compact bone layer, we found substantial changes of the bone tissue on
the long bones of extremities, scapulae and ribs. <...> Proliferate changes of the surface are noted on almost
all preserved bones. <...> Acromial processes of the scapulas and outer surface of the 12th rib are covered by
porous layers. <...> On the tibial and femoral bones the process is more manifested. <...> Deep lesion focus (12.6 mm) in the distal
part of the left tibia involves the medullar canal and differs from the gummatous destructions on the right
tibia. <...> Probably it is a complication of the syphilitic gumma by secondary pyogenic infection, which led to
syphilitic osteomyelitis. <...> The presented case is the most expressed and typical for the tertiary syphilis among
the investigated material of the Rozhdestveno I site. <...> It can be confi rmed <...>
