[Comparative measurements of right and left branches of the mandible].
Eighteen pairs of mandible measures were evaluated according to sex on europide skulls coming from south-eastern Hungarian cemeteries of the X-XII., centuries in order to disclose possible measure differences between the left and right side. Only a single measure, the smallest sagittal diameter of the collume mandibulae showed significant difference between both sides which was observed in both groups of men and women. The percentual relative frequencies according to which the 18 measures were equal on the left and right side (within 1 millimeter measuring error) changed between 39.9% and 82.0% (average 58.6%) with men, and between 45.9% and 83.2% (average 59.6%) with women. The examined measures proved to be greater on the right side by 3.2% with men and by 4.6% with women.
