Metric Variation in the Human Occipital Bone: Forensic Anthropological Applications

1 Sept 2001

Abstract excerpt

Sex and race variation of the occipital bone have been previously investigated, but particular examination of the effect of age and ancestry on sexual dimorphism has not been addressed. This paper examines morphological variation associated with sex and ancestry in the condylar region of the occipital bone and the effect of age and ancestry on the estimation of sex. Models previously published by Holland are also...
