Craniometric Relationships of Migrant Victims of the April 18, 2015 Shipwreck Off the Coast of Libya
One of the most tragic events involving African migrants’ attempts to get to Europe was the 2015 shipwreck off the coast of Libya. More than 300 crania were recovered and are currently in the Laboratory of Forensic Anthropology and Odontology, Milan, Italy, where attempts are being made to identify them. This paper analyzes the cranial morphometrics in relation to what is known of African cranial variation. It also addresses questions of populati…
Differences in the Shape of the Frontal Bone between 20th-Century Euro-Americans and Germans
Geometric morphometrics is a very useful but rarely applied concept in forensic anthropology. It uses information on the shape of an object for data analysis. For this study, geometric morphometrics has been used to compare the shape of the frontal bone between a German and a Euro-American sample (both early 20th century). Results were compared using size-only, shape-only and size-and-shape combined. Results show that the frontal shapes of the tw…
