What this Trial Is About
Forensic anthropometry is the traditional and basic tool of forensic anthropology. It's the science of obtaining systemic measurements of the physical dimensions of the human body. This, in turn, is a very important parameter in personal identification. Different anthropometric techniques are employed to determine sex from such fragmented body parts. Such anthropometric techniques aim to find cutoff points in the measurement of various body parts or bones that discriminate between males and females. Due to the effect of sex hormones, males are taller, larger and more strongly built than females, so measurements greater than the cutoff point are suggestive of a male and less than that are suggestive of a female.
