Sažetak

This paper presents the results of an analysis of human skeletal
remains from the Early Croatian cemetery at Tribalj. The
analysed sample consisted of 25 individuals from 18 graves.
Skeletal remains showed evidence of fractures, scurvy, tuberculosis,
osteopenia and osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and Schmorl’s nodes.
We also observed an unexpected sex and age distribution. The
analysis indicates poor living standards of the Early Croatian
inhabitants of Tribalj and raises questions about burial customs
at Vinodol in the Early Middle Ages.
