Some of the genomes from the previous study "The Genomic History Of Southeastern Europe" were published and analysed by Genetiker.
The "Golden man", the burial with the largest gold collection found in prehistoric Europe is identified as haplogroup T-M184. Previously he was only CT in the study. Anather sample from Varna, previously R1, is now proven R1b-V88.

• ANI152 / VAR43
Supine inhumation of a mature-senile male (50-65 years). The grave is extraordinary richly
furnished with seven heavy copper implements, more than 1000 single gold items, jewelry
made out of the shells of Spondylus and imported minerals, and highly sophisticated flint
tools. The social interpretation of VAR43 is mainly based on the rich grave goods and only in
small part based on the so far reported anthropological data. Muscle marks on the skeleton
show that the bones were exposed to great physical stress until shortly before his death. The
strong muscles of his lower arm even suggest continuous work. The bones from VAR43 show
arthritis on the cervical spine, the hands, and the feet. The left hip and especially the left knee
were also affected. A squatting facet on the left tibia of the individual can be seen as an
indication for preferentially sitting in squatting position, which hints at a working position.
The presence of calculus on the teeth points to a diet containing protein. However, there is no
evidence of cavities or so-called enamel hypoplasia, which is typically seen as an indicator of
stress during childhood development and could point to periods of malnutrition. This implies
a continuously good diet and could in itself be taken as a sign of higher social status of the
individual. Due to its outstandingly rich inventory, the grave shows strong interactions in a
social network analysis with many others in the course of the chronological development of
the cemetery. Within this network the strongest relations are given to some symbolic graves
at the very end of the development of Varna I, which is confirmed by positioning of VAR43
into the 6st phase of the cemetery in the correspondence analysis.
