Abstract

Archaeological research in 1968-1977 at Suceveni-Stoborăni site, Galati County (southern Moldavia), led to the identification of an Early Iron Age settlement that can be ascribed to Babadag culture. Three pits contained human bones: a collective burial with the bones of four individuals deposited in unnatural positions; one pit with the skeleton of a child in flexed position; and another complex with disturbed human remains. After studying the available documentation, we analyzed these finds, discussing the chronology and cultural ascription, state of representation of the bodies, number of individuals, anthropological observations, data on the position and orientation of the dead, observations on the assumed rituals, as well as on the place of deposition.
