Analysis reveals a strong correlation between craniofacial metrics and stature in an Indian population, suggesting useful forensic applications.

Craniofacial anthropometry shows a positive correlation with stature, aiding in forensic identification.
All twelve craniofacial parameters were analyzed, demonstrating their potential in estimating height from partial remains.
Regression analysis was utilized to establish relationships between craniofacial measurements and actual stature.
While long bones are the gold standard, craniofacial data offers a supplementary method when long bones are unavailable.

Kamakshi et al. (2025) studied this question.
