Skeletal variability in the human mandible with regard to sex.
Thompson, Hayley L.

Skeletal variability in the human mandible with regard to sex. - 93 p.

Adviser: George W. Gill.

Thesis (M.A.)--University of Wyoming, 2007.

The pelvis and cranium are said to be the two best indicators of sex in modern humans. However, these two pieces of evidence are not always present when uncovering human remains. The mandible is one of the bones that is often preserved in comparison to other human remains, and might show promise with regards to sex differences. The purpose of this study is to define osteometric sex differences in the human mandible as it is expressed in two different populations. These populations are contemporary and historic period Whites and Northwestern Plains Indians. The sample consists of 349 mandibles. Seven common mandible measurements will be used in this study.Subjects--Topical Terms:
