Abstract

Infracranial nonmetric variations have been considered for determining population distance between different regions and continents, in recent times. We studied different infracranial nonmetric traits from the Dakshina Kannada (South India) region to compare with the data available from the Gujarati (North India) region. The mean measure of divergence between the two different geographic regions showed significant variation. In our study, the incidence like i) Allen's fossa of the femur, ii) plaque formation in the upper end of the femur, iii) exostosis in trochanteric fosse of femur, iv) third trochanter of femur, v) os trigonum of talus, vi) medial talar facet, vii) peroneal tubercle of calcaneus, viii) bipartite transverse foramen in the cervical vertebra, too showed significant side difference.

摘要

近年来，颅下非测量性变异已被用于确定不同地区和各大洲之间的人群距离。我们研究了来自南印度达卡希纳卡纳达地区的不同颅下非测量性状，以便与来自北印度古吉拉特地区的现有数据进行比较。两个不同地理区域之间的平均差异度量显示出显著差异。在我们的研究中，诸如：i）股骨的艾伦窝；ii）股骨上端的斑块形成；iii）股骨转子窝的外生骨疣；iv）股骨第三转子；v）距骨三角骨；vi）距骨内侧小关节面；vii）跟骨腓骨结节；viii）颈椎二分横突孔等发生率也显示出显著的侧别差异。
