Abstract

In 3443 teeth of 418 adults (224 males, 194 females) from Lithuanian crania of the 1st and 2nd millennia A.D., vestibulolingual (VL) and mesiodistal (MD) diameters of each tooth were measured on the right side. The samples showed a marked stability during the millennia, measurements being typical for a mesodontic population. Definite sexual dimorphism of teeth measurements was established. A method for sex estimation from dental measurements is proposed.

摘要

在公元1至2千年前来自立陶宛颅骨的418名成年人（224名男性，194名女性）的3443颗牙齿上，测量了右侧每颗牙齿的唇舌径（VL）和近远中径（MD）。这些样本在这一千年间显示出显著的稳定性，测量结果对于中齿型人群来说是典型的。确定了牙齿测量存在明显的性别二态性。提出了一种通过牙齿测量来估计性别的方法。
