Reconstruction of skeletal height using measurements of metacarpals in a South African population group

2026-08-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Stature is a key biological attribute in personal identification and remains a fundamental aspect of forensic investigations. Although long bones are preferred for stature estimation because of their strong correlation with height, they are often unavailable due to fragmentation or incomplete skeletal remains. This study aimed to develop stature estimation equations for South Africans o...
