摘要：Reconstruction of ancient people's lives can be accomplished by studying their dental remains. They present a valuable source of information about the type of food people ate, illnesses they suffered from and social stratification within a community. Analysed dental remains refer to the antique period, between the 3rd and the 5th century. Romans lived in Cibalae, current Vinkovci. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hypoplastic changes on teeth. The analysed sample consisted of the dental remains of 100 individuals with total of 2728 teeth. Enamel hypoplasia was commonly found in the observed sample, yet it appeared in a smaller number of teeth. Hypoplastic defects were more often found among the women, and were more severe - it can be assumed this is the result of a poor diet, and thus, a greater susceptibility to disease.
