Early Copper Age Graves from Polgár-Nagy-Kasziba
View through CrossRef
Four Early Copper Age graves were excavated at Polgár-Nagy-Kasziba; two young children, and two adults – the latter including an elderly man and a woman. They all belong to the so-called Tiszapolgár culture. Thanks to numerous examinations – meaning anthropology, pathology or AMS dating –, much information were revealed about the four individuals, but they were never completely published. This paper analyses in details the whole grave cluster compared to the other graves from the Tiszapolgár culture, especially at the Polgár region. As a result, the personal biographies of the four individuals were created. However, it seems that all the four deceased were connected to high prestige in some way because of their age, gender, kinship or personal achievements.
