Research Papers Prediction of personal stature based on the hand length

Introduction: Estimation of stature from incomplete skeletal and decomposing human remains is particularly important in personal identification. Prediction of stature has been achieved from measurements of various long bones with varying degrees of accuracy. All such calculations depend on the fact that limbs exhibit consistent ratios relative to the total height of a person and these ratios are linked to age, sex and race. Objectives: This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between personal stature and hand lengt
