Bioclimatic and masticatory influences on human cranial diversity verified by analysis of 3D morphometric homologous models

Abstract This study analyzes the effects of bioclimate and masticatory factors on the regional variability of human cranial forms across 150 ethnic groups worldwide. Morphometric variables were generated using principal component analysis applied to 3D homologous models. Relationships between crania...
