- 5). 3, 2, 8) 388 Anthropology Odontology The of the elevated frequency of shovel- shaped upper incisors and deflecting wrinkles, on one hand, with the absence of 6-cusped lower first molars and distal trigonid crests, on the other, is highly specific. Firstly, is sets the sample apart from the European Mesolithic - Bronze Age series used in our comparison and places it the range of Asian populations. Secondly, it sharply restricts the number of morphological analogies even in Asia. Judging on the frequency of traits traditionally used Russian odontologists for inter-population comparisons, the series has the closest affinity with the Ymiyakhtakh culture people in Yakutia. Both groups share high frequency of shovel-shapedness, moderate incidence of Carabelli's trait, middle level of upper molar reduction, absence of distal trigonid crests, elevated frequencies of deflecting wrinkles and shovel-shaped upper incisors 5). The Ymiyakhtakh series gave only one lower first molar with an additional (sixth) cusp, which is totally absent on the teeth. However, it should noted that the Ymiyakhtakh series includes materials from five cemeteries (Diring-Yuryakh, Pomazkino 3, Kamenka 2, Matta, Vilyuiskoe shosse), and the additional cusp was found only in woman buried at Vilyuiskoe shosse. Moreover, it was present just on one side of the This suggests that in general the presence of this trait is typical neither of the Ymiyakhtakh nor of the people. While the statistical comparison of the series with earlier groups from Siberia and the Far East 8) confirms the between the former and the Ymiyakhtakh culture people, it suggests also that the two populations were not completely identical.
