“…There are two approaches to achieve this aim: DNA analysis (Ricaut et al, ; Deguilloux et al, ) and morphology. In this case, we use (a) osteological and dental nonmetric traits (NMTs) (Stojanowski & Schillaci, ; Paul & Stojanowski, ; Stojanowski & Hubbard, ), (b) selected bone dimensions (Carson, ; Martínez‐Abadías et al, ), and (c) genetically conditioned anomalies manifested in the skeleton (Anderson, ; Berry, ; Case et al, ). According to previous studies (Rösing, , ; Ritschmeier et al, ; Ricaut et al, ), the greatest importance is attributed to nonmetric (NM) phenotypic traits.…”
