[Problem-oriented analysis of the medical-anthropologic identification in forensic medicine].
The paper deals with a detailed analysis of the key trends in the current forensic-medical anthropology. The attention is focused on diagnosis of group personality signs: presence of osseous substance, species diagnosis, attribution of remains to one or several cadavers, determination of a possible residence territory, group adherence of the osseous and tooth tissues, as well as determination of race, sex, age, stature, etc. Such topical issues as personality reconstruction by skull, establishment of kindred, and special identification tools are detailed. Finally, conditions affecting the objects of expertise, i.e. prescription of corpse burying, fragmentation, signs of cadaver extermination, are also elucidated.
