Abstract

This article presents the results of anthropological analysis of bone material that was discovered in trench 9 in the Dominican Monastery of St. Catherine in Split. Due to the fact that it was a burial chamber with several skeletons, forensic–anthropological methods were applied with the aim to determine the minimal number of individuals. In addition, the anthropological characteristics of the population, the demographic structure, the quality of life and living conditions of the late mediaeval/ modern population were illustrated. The results were compared to the results of sites in Croatia and abroad.
