“…Several methods have been developed which provide criteria for sex assessment, focusing on visual (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) and morphometric analyses (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26) of the pelvis bones. A number of studies have been undertaken for the purpose of sex estimation using postcranial and craniofacial discriminant function analysis from Mexican samples (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32).…”

Sex assessment of skeletal remains plays an important role in forensic anthropology. The pelvic bones are the most studied part of the postcranial skeleton for the assessment of sex. It is evident that a population-specific approach improves rates of accuracy within the group. The present study proposes a discriminant function method for the sex assessment of skeletal remains from a contemporary Mexican population. A total of 146 adult human pelvic bones (61 females and 85 males) from the skeletal series pertaining to the National Autonomous University of Mexico were evaluated. Twenty-four direct metrical parameters of coxal and sacral bones were measured and subsequently, sides and sex differences were evaluated, applying a stepwise discriminant function analysis. Coxal and sacra functions achieved accuracies of 99% and 87%, respectively. These analyses follow a population-specific approach; nevertheless, we consider that our results are applicable to any other Hispanic samples for purposes of forensic human identification.

“…Methods for sex assessment from human bones are given in traditional osteology manuals developed by different authors [1,[7][8][9][10]. Based on a visual approach, Genové s [11,12], Phenice [13], Novotny [14], Bruzek [15], Bruzek and coworkers [16,17] and Walker [18] have suggested the considerations to follow for sex assessment in mature human pelvic bones.…”

“…Each tooth was first reduced to powder. After overnight decalcification and protein digestion at 558C with agitation (EDTA 0.5 M, pH 5 8.5, proteinase K 1-2 mg/mL, N-lauryl Sarcosyl 0.5%), the supernatants were extracted using phenol-chloroform- Ubelaker, 1984; sex determination according to Bruzek et al, 1996;n.d Amplification, cloning, and sequencing PCR amplifications were performed on the HVR-I region of the mitochondrial DNA control region. Partial sequences of 225 bp of the HVR-I (nps 16,165 to 16,390) were obtained using a set of three overlapping primer pairs: Ms1 (Jehaes et al, 2001), L16210 (nps 16,190-16,210) and H16322 (nps 16,302-16,322), and Ms3 (Jehaes et al, 2001).…”

Recent paleogenetic studies have confirmed that the spread of the Neolithic across Europe was neither genetically nor geographically uniform. To extend existing knowledge of the mitochondrial European Neolithic gene pool, we examined six samples of human skeletal material from a French megalithic long mound (c.4200 cal BC). We retrieved HVR-I sequences from three individuals and demonstrated that in the Neolithic period the mtDNA haplogroup N1a, previously only known in central Europe, was as widely distributed as western France. Alternative scenarios are discussed in seeking to explain this result, including Mesolithic ancestry, Neolithic demic diffusion, and long-distance matrimonial exchanges. In light of the limited Neolithic ancient DNA (aDNA) data currently available, we observe that all three scenarios appear equally consistent with paleogenetic and archaeological data. In consequence, we advocate caution in interpreting aDNA in the context of the Neolithic transition in Europe. Nevertheless, our results strengthen conclusions demonstrating genetic discontinuity between modern and ancient Europeans whether through migration, demographic or selection processes, or social practices.
