Anthropological examinations.(Evidence Examinations)(Brief Article)
Anthropological examinations can determine whether something is a bone and, if so, whether it is human or animal in origin. Race, sex, approximate height and stature, and approximate age at death can be determined from human remains. Damage to bone such as cuts, blunt-force trauma, and bullet holes may also be examined. Personal identifications can be made by comparing X-rays of a known individual to skeletal remains.
Anthropological examinations are usually conducted on bones sent to the Laboratory for DNA analysis or for facial reproductions.
