Sažetak
The process of recovering and identifying human remains from individual and mass graves has proven to be the most effective method for resolving the fate of missing individuals in the former Yugoslavia. From 1996 to the present, the remains of 388 individuals killed during the 1991 War in Croatia were recovered from the Glina and Petrinja areas, in Sisačko-Moslavačka county. The purpose of this paper is to report on the demographic and taphonomic characteristics of the recovered remains and identify factors responsible for the discrepancy in the identification ratios.The state of preservation of the remains differs between the sexes.The preservation, state and commingling of the remains from the Sisačko-Moslavačka county is strongly correlated with positive identification .
