| A population-specific approach to skeletal analysis is critical due to the impacts of environmental and cultural factors on human variation. This study analysed sex determination in 77 individuals, discovered from the Liyar- Sang-Bon cemetery in Guilan, Iran (2016–2018), using both metric and non-metric innominate bone assessments. Its primary aim was to evaluate the applicability of global standards and identify factors shaping anatomical variation in this population. Initial analyses applied global sex determination methods, followed by statistical comparisons (t-tests) to identify reliable indicators within the pelvis, including the sacrum and Os coxae. The results reveal significant sexual dimorphism in certain pelvic regions, although not all indicators met the statistical threshold (P<0.05). These findings highlight the limitations of universal standards, emphasising the need for population-specific data. They also demonstrated that results may vary when using with larger or more diverse samples. The study underscores the challenges of pelvic-based sex estimation due to biological and population diversity. By comparing traditional and modern methods, it advocates for localised methodologies and contributes invaluable insights into human biodiversity. Future research that integrates broader skeletal evidence with larger sample sizes is essential for refining techniques and enhancing accuracy in both forensic and bioarchaeological applications. | ||
