Utilizing innovative methods from physical anthropology and forensic medicine, the author presents a groundbreaking approach to identifying familial relationships in skeletal remains when DNA isolation is unfeasible. By comparing X-ray images of paranasal cavities and other epigenetic traits, the kinship of 18 skulls found in a family vault is established. This work is particularly valuable for professionals in fields such as human identification, heredity studies, and various branches of science and history.
