Abstract
The present study is aimed to help in identification of an individual by understanding the variations in cranial dimensions and to propose population and gender specific regression equations for stature estimation using the linear dimensions of the cranium. The study was conducted on 200 dead bodies (100 males and 100 females) belonging to southern Kerala region. skull breadth, length and skull height were utilised for estimation of stature. All the parameters showed positive correlation with stature with skull height for males having the highest correlation coefficient. Linear regression equation for males and females were derived separately.
