Abstract

Introduction: Skull is more represented and reported to forensic experts for the identification of a person. Stature is an important biological profile to help to confirm the absolute identification of a person. The judicial authority still consider stature estimation to confirm the identity. Even though many studies are available from the long bones, the challenge arises when long bones are not available and the formulae derived from these were limited applicable to fragmentary skeletal remain. Hence, we have undertaken the study, for the estimation of stature from the length of cranial sutures.
