Sažetak

Dental mutilation can provide clues about the migration of human populations in the world and provide valuable information about the socio-economic and socio-cultural structure of those populations. The aim of this study is to gain knowledge and contribute to literature about the habits, physical appearance and migratory routes of ancient people from the data findings on their skeletal remains found in an ancient castle (Maiden’s Castle) located in the south of Turkey. Dental findings from skeletal remains found during the archeological excavation of Corycus in Turkey were investigated. V-shaped dental mutilations were identified in two upper incisor from a single individual and the results were evaluated according to Romero’s classification. The dental mutilation discoveries identified in this study will contribute to the literature regarding the migratory routes and cultural interactions of the people who lived there in the past.
