Resumo
Preliminary investigation has indicated that the use of the ventral arc, subpubic concavity, and medial aspect of the ischio‐pubic ramus as sexing criteria allows one to sex the os pubis with an accuracy in excess of 95%. The method described here is simple and objective enough to allow the beginning researcher to sex hip bones accurately while requiring the presence of only a small fragment of the bone.
