- CLUE #2: Now that you have narrowed down your victims, let’s see if we can shorten the list even more. Bones have been saved from these victims over the years. Let’s study them to see what we can find. Victim #1: The skull shows a prominent external occipital protuberance and has a sloping frontal bone. Victim #2: The pelvis shows a greater sciatic arch and a wide sub-pubic angle. The sacrum is short and wide. In addition, the femur bone shows that one epiphyseal plate has completely fused while the other is still slightly open. Victim #3: The skull has a squarish mental protuberance and a less obtuse mandibular angle. The femur and the tibia seem to be bowing. Using this information, you should be able to determine the gender of each victim and possibly other important information. Write your responses in the text box provided.

Forensic Anthropologists create a chart to illustrate the overlap between the ages at which various fusions occur: Example: the proximal end of the humerus fuses between the ages of 14-23 years old. The distal end of the humerus fuses between the ages of 11-18 years old. If the recovered human remains humerus has an proximal end that is almost but not quite fused and a distal end that is fused solid, then we can estimate the age at death as between 14-18 years old.
