Morphometric Craniometry study in Human Dry Skulls and High Resolution Scans in the South Indian Adult Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
INTRODUCTION: Craniometry is the technique of measuring the various dimensions of bones of the skull. By using cephalic index, orbital index and Auriculo vertical indices, skull types can be determined.

The Swanscombe fossil at 90: revisiting its phylogeny, taxonomy, and place in human origins Le fossile de Swanscombe, 90 ans après : retour sur sa place phylogénique, taxonomique et dans les origines de l'humanité

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The year 2025 marked the ninetieth since a fossil hominin occipital bone was discovered in Swanscombe, southeast England. In subsequent years, its parietal bones were found, producing what remains the oldest partial cranium from Britain today. In the earliest analyses, it was interpreted as a descendant of the infamous fraudulent fossil Piltdown Man ...

Evaluation of Maxillary and Mandibular Transverse Dimensions on Digital Models and CBCT in Untreated Subjects With Normal Occlusion

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the transverse dimension in adults with normal occlusion using cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital models, and to establish norms for maxillo‐mandibular differentials. Material and Methods Twenty‐four untreated adults with normal occlusion were selected.

It Takes Two to Tango: A Pluralist Account for Building Comprehensive Explanations in Human Evolution

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 494-510, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The evolutionary study of human dispersal is a key topic in biological anthropology. However, recent research has revealed inconsistencies between molecular and anatomical data across different timescales and geographic regions. Despite increased interdisciplinary dialogue, these discordances are rarely analyzed in depth or interpreted for ...

Thinking with the head : race, craniometry and humanism

open access: yes, 2009
This paper draws upon assemblage theory to challenge the familiar argument that nineteenth century craniometry – the practice of head measuring – was simply a racist practice.

The reproducibility of cephalometric landmarks: an experimental study on skulls

open access: yesAustralasian Orthodontic Journal, 1998
Few previous cephalometric studies have used dry skulls in order to eliminate the effects of the facial soft tissues. The aim of this study were to quantify the intra-examiner reproducibility of the commonly used cephalometric landmarks, angles and ...
