Sažetak
Odontometric researches of deciduous teeth of archaeological populations are extremely rare. The purpose of this study was to obtain data on dimensions of deciduous teeth in Croatian archaeological populations from the Late Antique and the Early Mediaeval period. For this purpose skeletal remains of 58 subadults were used. The maximum mesiodistal diameter of the tooth crown, the maximum mesiodistal diameter of the tooth neck, the maximum buccolingual crown diameter, maximum height of the crown, the maximum length of the crown, the maximum length of the tooth root were measured and the robustness of teeth was calculated. Obtained data were compared with existing odontometric data of recent populations. No statistically significant differences between the archaeological and recent populations were found.
