    Abstract:
    From the skeletal remains of about 5800 individuals from the charnel house of Eggenburg there were 2200 individuals of late medieval date. These were checked for injuries and pathologies. Of the skulls 410 showed various injuries and 430 pathologies. These pathologies could be differentiated into 20 groups. The frequencies of injuries (18.7%) and pathologies (19.5%) were very similar in the skulls, which contrasted with those in the 11600 long bones of 0.5% injuries and 3.8% pathologies. On the whole the degree of expression of the traumatic lesions and of the pathologies was slight to medium.
