| Popis | The international project »HistoGenes: Integrating genetic, archaeological and historical perspectives on Eastern central Europe 400–900 AD« has been running for three years. Its goal is to integrate historical, archaeological and genetic data from around 6000 skeletons from the Carpathian Basin and neigh - bouring regions and thus write a completely new population history for the area. From 568 to around 800, the Avar Empire was located here, from which we now know about 100 000 gra- ves, most of them with significant inventories. Within the framework of »HistoGenes«, two Avar burial grounds from Lower Austria were also completely sampled. The necropolises of Mödling – An der Goldenen Stiege and Leobersdorf appear similar as far as the generally used means of representation are concerned, but differ in numerous other details. The article presents the large, yet still unpublished cemetery of Mödling, and compares it with the smaller one of Leobers- dorf. It then goes into the ongoing archaeogenetic investiga- tions and shows how genetics makes it possible to explain cer- tain archaeological phenomena. Two excursions on special earring types and another on the development of pottery forms in Mödling complete the overview. |
