This article examines nine human skeletons from Tell Madhhur; five dated to the 'Ubaid period, one to the Early Dynastic period, one to the Akkadian period, and two to the Islamic period. The bones were examined to determine age, sex, and pathological conditions of the remains. Only data relevant to the 'Ubaid period, however, have been indexed for OCM(Outline of Cultural Materials)subjects in this collection.
