Human bony labyrinth as a sex indicator in subadults
Legal Medicine, 2023Due to the durability and good preservation of the petrous bone in archaeological and forensic contexts, the value of the inner ear as a sex indicator has been evaluated in various studies. Previous findings suggest that the morphology of the bony labyrinth is not stable in the postnatal period.

Sexual dimorphism of the bony labyrinth: A new age‐independent method
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2013ABSTRACTCurrently in physical anthropology there is a need for reliable methods of sex estimation for immature individuals and highly fragmented remains. This study develops a sex estimation technique from discriminant function analysis of the bony labyrinth as it matures before puberty and can survive taphonomic conditions that would destroy most ...

Postnatal changes of the human bony labyrinth morphology
HOMO, 2021It has been suggested that the inner ear attains its final morphology already in utero and that environmental factors do not influence its size or shape after birth. Thus, direct comparison between the adult and the subadult bony labyrinths can be made. Herein, this hypothesis was tested in a sample of 170 subadult individuals.

Comparative review of the human bony labyrinth
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1998The bony labyrinth inside the petrous part of the temporal bone houses the organs of hearing and balance. Being functionally linked with sensory control of body movements and located in a part of the basicranium that is closely associated with the brain, this structure is of great interest in the study of human evolutionary history.

Ovariectomized rat model and shape variation in the bony labyrinth
The Anatomical Record, 2022AbstractPostmenopausal osteoporosis is a serious concern in aging individuals, but has not been explored for its potential to alter the shape of the inner ear by way of increased remodeling in the otic capsule. The otic capsule, or bony labyrinth, is thought to experience uniquely limited remodeling after development due to high levels of ...

The bony labyrinth of the early platyrrhine primate Chilecebus
Journal of Human Evolution, 2010We document the morphology of the bony labyrinth of Chilecebus carrascoensis, one of the best preserved early platyrrhines known, based on high resolution CT scanning and 3D digital reconstruction. The cochlea is low and conical in form, as in other anthropoids, but has only 2.5 spiral turns.

Ontogenetic Changes in the Bony Labyrinth of Macaca mulatt a
Folia Primatologica, 1982Age-related changes in the labyrinths of rhesus monkeys were observed. The interfenestral axis increases in verticality from the youngest to the oldest age groups.

New insight into the bony labyrinth: A microcomputed tomography study
Auris Nasus Larynx, 2010To visualize and quantify the morphology and mineralization of the developing fetal human bony labyrinth, using 3D-microcomputed tomography (3D-microCT) imaging.Eleven right temporal bones from late second and third trimester fetuses were used in this prospective pilot study.

Functional morphological adaptations of the bony labyrinth in marsupials (Mammalia, Theria)
Journal of Morphology, 2017AbstractDiprotodontia represents the largest and ecologically most distinct order of marsupials occurring in Australasian being highly divers in size, locomotion, habitat preferences, feeding, and activity pattern. The spatial orientation in the habitat and therefore the three‐dimensional space is detected by the vestibular system of the inner ear ...
