title: [The early bronze age graveyard of Franzhausen I, lower Austria. 3. Study of epigenetic characteristics].
abstract: The epigenetic variants of 635 early Bronze Age individuals from Franzhausen I, Lower Austria, were studied. The main interest of this examination, besides getting data, was the calculation of frequencies and testing the variants for sex and age dependence. Additionally, intertraits and side-to-side correlation were discussed. The results showed that as much data as possible should be included for calculation. Even subadult individuals could be adopted in the analysis if facts of growth and formative years are considered. Sex and intertrait correlation are less important for population comparison, but they have considerable consequences for intrapopulation calculation.
