Abstract
Anthropological studies of bone remains of the inhabitants of Wroclaw add to the knowledge about its former ethnical structure as well as living and sanitary conditions in the past. 142 skeletons belonging to the individuals of both sexes were studied and of different age were studied. The skeletons were excavated in 2005 and 2007 in the cemetery near St. Mary Magdalene’s church and were dated to 16th – 17th century. Morphological analysis was performed together with the study on physiological stress symptoms. The studies confirmed that the individuals buried there belonged to the social elite of the city and allowed for setting the relations with other skeletal populations from Wroclaw.
