Geometric Analysis of Sexual Dimorphism in Upper Palaeolithic Skulls from Předmostí (Czech Republic).

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Using geometric morphometrics we studied rediscovered photographs of unique skeletal material from Předmostí still preserved in the form of glass negatives. This study comprises Upper Paleolithic findings of the remains of 27 individuals, with estimatedages ranging from 25 - 27,000 years BP. The aim of our study is to determine the types of inter-sexual shape variability using landmarks of the most preserved skulls of adult individuals. While our results roughly support Matiegka´s sex estimation, the skull 1, Matiegka´s female, is more similar to males. Inter-skull differences are ?more striking? in lateral, frontal and vertical views whereas inter-sexual differences affect particularly the non-affine part of changes in vertical, lateral and basal views. The areas of metopion, glabella, auriculare, porion, asterion, gnathion and opisthocranion present more striking variation, that is, those with more discriminatory power. According to computation of various skull distances, male skull
