Popis Seventy graves with skeletal remains dated to the 16th and the first half of 17th century were discovered during rescue archaeological excavations in Veselí nad Moravou (Czech Republic). Remains of 185 individuals were found in total, out of which 98 skeletons belonged to adults, 82 to children, and 5 to adolescents. Out of 98 skeletons of adult individuals, 50 skeletons belonged to men, 40 to women and the sex could not be determined in 8 cases. The presented study includes both a basic anthropological analysis and a detailed description of the paleopathological cases of inflammations found. Cases of bone tuberculosis and tertiary stage syphilis represented specific inflammations. The described cases supplement the series of paleopathological findings from the Early Modern Period in the Czech territory and provide a comparative material for further osteological studies.
