Why is it important?

Background: Estimation of stature has a very significant role to play in forensic anthropometry for personal identification. Objective: To discover out the correlation among proportions of feet with stature in tribals of Udaipur district in Rajasthan (India). Material and Methods: The present study was conducted on a total number of 481 male tribals of Udaipur district by using standard anthropometric techniques. Results: There was a correlation between height and foot breadth in Tribals of Udaipur and found correlation coefficient (r) as 0.0240 for right foot and for left foot it was 0.0238. Conclusion: Linear regression equations were deduced in males out of which lowest standard error of estimate was experienced in combined foot breadth of males.
