Abstract
Very important role in the forensic investigation of mass graves takes forensic anthropology. Anthropologists take
part during the exhumation and later through the investigation and identification procedures. Forensic investigations of
mass graves in Kosovo and Metohija are going on. In this paper we observe all cases that were exhumed and identified during 2001., 2002., 2003. till the 1. 05 2004. In this time 280 dead bodies were exhumed and forensic team did autopsies, but
111 dead bodies were identified. Our aim was to analyze anthropological measurments (gender, age and stature) and compare them with the real state on identified dead bodies. Scientifics all over the world made the record of the very good results
of anthropology work. After our investigation we can say that anthropology is very valuable during the exhumation of mass
graves.
