Identification Division

This section of the web site has been designed to help you understand what basic information an  investigator looks for on a crime scene that has  skeleton remains.  This site will place emphasis on the skeleton identification relative to determination of gender, age at death, racial affiliation, stature, and other parameters useful to making identifications.  Remember though these techniques are useful, this subject deals with humans, and when dealing with humans there is never any absolutes.
