5 About the Prehistoric Burial Rites, Rituals and Anthropological Data in Dobroudja (Eneolithic-Iron Age) Cătălina Semuc and Alexandra Comşa 5 About the Prehistoric Burial Rites, Rituals and Anthropological Data in Dobroudja (Eneolithic-Iron Age) 5.1 Introduction In our contribution we will try to offer an image of the prehistoric funerary monuments in the Romanian Dobroudja, namely between the Danube to the north and east and the present border with Bulgaria, without hampering in any way the interpretation concerning the funerary rite and ritual on the Lower Danube and western coast of the Black Sea as a whole. As Cristian Schuster and Alexandru Morintz will refer in the present volume to the prehistoric sites (Bronze and Hallstatt period) of the same region, we will not tackle the range of the various cultures. Yet, we will do it for the Neolithic and transitional period to the Bronze Age. In order to have a clearer image regarding funerary monuments, we have adopted the method of Valeriu Sîrbu, exposed in the volume entitled Funerary archaeology and sacrifices: an unifying terminology. We have to stress here also, that we do not have complete information for all cultural manifestations; this situation is due both to objective and subjective reasons all of which are connected with the research mode and publication of the results obtained from the field investigation. 5.2 Archaeological Data 5.2.1 Early Eneolithic Period 5.2.1.1 Hamangia Culture This cultural manifestation comprised parts of north-eastern Bulgaria along with the Romanian Dobroudja, (Haşotti 1997: 17-18). The origin of the culture is likely located in Anatolia (Haşotti 1997: 15-17). Necropoli: Cernavodă-Columbia D (Constanţa County) (Haşotti 1997: 28-29, with older literature-Berciu, Morintz, Roman, 1959: 95-103) comprises 556 individuals and was dated in the second half of the 4th millennium and the first half of the 3rd millennium B. C. Limanu (Constanţa County) (Haşotti 1997: 32, with older literature- Berciu, Morintz, Ionescu, Roman 1959, 49-54)-two individuals, a woman and a child, the latter being anthropologically studied and aged at four years. Unfortunately, the necropolis on that spot seems to have been destroyed by the works at the dam on the Mangalia Lake. 144 About the Prehistoric Burial Rites, Rituals and Anthropological Data in Dobroudja ... Funerary rite: In the necropolis at Cernavodă-Columbia D the funerary rite was inhumation in flat burials, in supine positions, most of the individuals with a SE orientation. At Limanu, inhumation was also present. Position of the skeletons: At Cernavodă-Columbia D there was a slight inclination of the body to the right, with the left arm being placed in different positions. There are also few flexed skeletons that have been mentioned. At Limanu, due to the fact that the necropolis was destroyed, the position of the skeletons is not known. Grave goods: polished stone implements (axes, chisels) were usually placed near the skull, along with ceramic vessels and burnt clay figurines (featuring standing or sitting personages). The most renowned statuettes are the so-called ”Thinkers” of Cernavodă, a man and a woman (presumably spouses) sitting on separate short chairs. In some burials, pendants or other shell-made adornments were found. Archaeologist Puiu Haşotti maintains that the ceramics in the settlement were significantly different from the one in the burials so their comparison is rather difficult (Haşotti 1997: 28). Also, in many burials animal bones (most frequently boar) have been discovered (offerings?). Anthropological data: Out of this cemetery, comprising 556 skeletons or their parts, some individuals could not be entirely exploited for their anthropological features, but all of them could be used for their demographic significance. The repartition of the individuals by sex is rendered in Table 5.1, Fig. 5.1 and 5.2.

Cernavoda - Columbia D 14% 2% 3% 3% 12% Infans I (0-7 ani) 3% Infans II (7-14 ani) Juvenis (14-20 ani) Adultus (20-30 ani) Maturus (30-60ani) Senilis (60 ani x) Unknown 63% Figure 5.1: Proportion on age categories in the skeleton series from Cernavodǎ-Columbia D (Haman- gia Culture). � The gender of the individuals in the Neolithic site from Cernavoda-Columbia D 22% 37% Men Women Unknown 41% Figure 5.2: Proportion between the genders and children in the skeleton series from Cernavodă-� Columbia D. Concerning the anthropological features of this community, it can be established that the skulls are mostly dolichocranian, for both sexes, at the upper limit of this category. There is slight variation concerning the sex differences. The male individuals have dolichocranian and mesocranian skulls, while the females have also brachycranian indexes, together with one hyperbrachycranian and one ultrabrachycranian individual. The height of the cranial vault is usually large for both sexes, belonging to the high and very high category of skulls. The porio-bregmatic longitudinal and transversal indexes are moderate, namely orthocranian and metriocranian. We have Archaeological Data 149 to stress here that the male skulls belong in 57% to the hipsycranian category for the porio-bregmatic longitudinal index, while the female is in a smaller proportion of 22%. The porio-bregmatic transversal index registers lesser cases in the high acrocranian category both for men (39%) and for women (25%). On the occipital bones, a special configuration of the bones can be observed with a very high and curved squama and a transversal depression located under the inion point. Thus it reveals some analogies with the Osman-kayasi forms, shapes conventionally denominated as “variant C”. The stature, calculated according to three classical methods in use (Manouvrier, Bach- Breitinger, Trotter and Glesser) is usually over medium, towards the high end for the male individuals and high for females one. According to all the information obtained when studying this series, it may be inferred that the population under discussion was a rather polymorphous community.

  • Romania: Danube Delta Integrated Sustainable Development Strategy
    Romania: Danube Delta Integrated Sustainable Development Strategy About the Danube Delta Region The Danube Delta is one of the continent’s most valuable habitats for specific delta wildlife and biodiversity. Established as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a Ramsar site in 1990, it is the Europe’s second largest delta, and the best preserved of European deltas. The most significant physical and ecological feature of the Danube Delta is its vast expanse of wetlands, including freshwater marsh, lakes and ponds, streams and channels. With an area of 3,446 km2, is the world’s largest wetland. Only 9% of the area is permanently above water. The Delta hosts extraordinary biodiversity and provides important environmental services. It is the home of over 1,200 varieties of plants, 300 species of birds, as well as 45 freshwater fish species in its numerous lakes and marshes. There are 16 strictly protected areas in the delta where no economic activities are allowed, and areas for ecological rehabilitation and buffer zones between economical areas where tourist activities are permitted as long as the environment is protected. Dual Challenge in Developing the Danube Delta A dual challenge for the sustainable development of the Danube Delta is the conservation of its ecological assets and improvement of the quality of life for its residents. The Danube Delta is the largest remaining natural delta in Europe and one of the largest in the world. It is also the only river that is entirely contained within a Biosphere Reserve. It is important to conserve all of its ecological assets. 1 Danube Delta is perhaps one of the least inhabited regions of temperate Europe, with only about 10,000 people in one town (Sulina) and about 20 scattered villages.
