Abstract

Aim:
The aim of this study is to establish the relationship between stature of different people and their inter acromial distance and to develop a regression equation formula from two variables in both males  and females.
 
Introduction:
Stature  provides numerous features of  a population. It is a vital characteristic of an individual. It is used in forensic anthropology. Stature represents the distance between top of the head and bottom of the feet. Height is one of the steps for identification. There is a significant correlation between stature and different body measurement. Inter Acromial distance is the distance between the two bony landmarks,acromial processes of the scapula on both sides. Lateral point on the lateral border of the acromial process when a person stands in normal anatomical position with arms hanging by sides.
