| الوصف: | Introduction and Objective: Since the skull is resistant to fire, mutilation, and decay, it is the ideal bone for determining the gender of the deceased. In order to determine the reliability of these indices for sexual dimorphism of the skull, the study will examine the usage of the Cranial Index, Nasal Index, and Orbital Index. Materials and Method: The study material consisted of 100 adult skulls of known sex available in the Anatomy department, GMC, Datia (M.P.) from August 2022 to January 2023 (6 months) which includes 60 males and 40 females. After positioning the skull on Frankfurt’s horizontal plane, measurements were collected. A scale, marker, spreading calliper, and Vernier calliper were the tools utilized for the measurement. Two measurements were made at separate sittings, and the average was calculated. Results: Male and female participants’ skulls had mean CIs of 74.22 and 76.12, respectively, and NIs of 48.64 and 55.42. The average OI for male and female skulls was 85.66 and 85.58, respectively. This method only allowed the nasal index to identify 32.16% of male and 5.12% of female skulls, while the cranial index could only identify 5% of male and 20.38% of female skulls. It was discovered that the nose index and the cranial index were both statistically significant (p<0.05). For males and women, respectively, the CI’s demarking points were 62.34 and 86.14. The DP for NI for men was 36.18, and the DP for women was 67.38. Because the skulls of the male and female share a large percentage of overlap, DP for OI could not be determined. Conclusion: Because so few skulls could be recognized, none of the three indices—CI, NI, or OI—promised in isolation for sex identification. The study comes to the conclusion that, in cases of sexual dimorphism of the skull, the validity of these three cranial indices is questionable. ; Introduction and Objective: Since the skull is resistant to fire, mutilation, and decay, it is the ideal bone for determining the gender of the deceased.
