[Possibilities of metric sex determination from the pars petrosa ossis temporalis].
Based on a sample of petrous bones of known sex (47 males and 47 females) discriminant functions were worked out for sexing both uncremated and cremated petrous bones. Classification values were certain to range from 70.2% to 76.6% for uncremated petrosals and from 67.0% to 73.4% for cremated ones. The results do not support the more promising values suggested by Wahl (1981).
