Investigations in Sex Estimation: A Comparison of Morphological and Metrical Methods compares the many morphological and metric methods currently used on human remains of both adults and juveniles. This single, comprehensive resource for sex estimation in skeletal material includes discussions on the evolution of sexual dimorphism in modern humans, how sexual dimorphism manifests itself in bones, growth development in juveniles, and how sexual dimorphism can be measured. New insights are offered for future research based on case studies on gender and a comparison of the sex differences between two African-American collections which suggest a correlation between occupation and evolutionary change. To achieve the objective, data on 294 adults from four diverse collections of known sex were obtained using a total of 67 morphological and metric methods. An additional 23 morphological and metric methods were used on juveniles, aged 0 to 18, from two of the collections. The methods are specific to either the cranium, mandible, pelvis, humerus or femur.
