确定性别是身份不明者身份识别程序中最重要的步骤之一。牙齿是性信息的潜在来源。研究是在奥西耶克附近的Bijelo Brdo考古遗址的中世纪墓地（第10和第11世纪）在19世纪末和世纪初出土的86个头骨。这些材料存放在萨格勒布的考古博物馆。性别是根据20个颅骨颅面，以及牙齿特征来确定的。性别二态性的牙测量功能进行了测试的学生的t检验方法。55.8%的病例可以根据颅面特征确定性别。结合颅面和牙齿测量特征，可以确定86%的病例的性别。在没有关于性别的死前数据的情况下，最好是将若干不同的方法联合收割机结合起来，以提高性别鉴定的可信度和成功率。
Determining sex is one of the most important steps in the procedure of identification of the unknown person. Teeth are a potential source of information on sex. The research is performed on the total of 86 skulls excavated in the late 19th and early 20th century from the mediaeval cemetery (10th and 11th century) at the archaeological site of Bijelo Brdo near Osijek. The material is stored in the Museum of Archaeology in Zagreb. Sex is determined on the basis of 20 osseal craniofacial, as well as odontometric features. Sexual dimorphism of the odontometric features is tested by the Students' t-test method. Determining sex on the basis of craniofacial features is possible in 55.8% of the cases. Combining the craniofacial and odontometric features it is possible to determine sex in 86% of the cases. In cases where ante-mortem data on sex are not available it is best to combine a number of different methods in order to raise the level of confidence and the level of success in sex determination.
