Abstract

The author studied to determine the sex and age of 8 ancient human skeletal remains, which had been excavated from ancient tombs located in Yeanri, Kimhae. Some lands of personal identification methods with their:skulls and teeth were used for this study and the results were obtained as follows:
1. Sex determination was possible in ancient teeth from 4th.to 5th century, using detection, of X-Y homologo amelogenin gene by pblyrberase chain reaction. . .
2. DNA analysis proved that the materials examined were all male, but which always did not coincide with the results from other methods for sex determination including comparison of sexual differentiation of cranium and teeth and use of discriminant functions in the dental measurement
3. There was little difference of the estimated ages between the methods by regression of pulp cavity and attrition in teeth. The ages from these two methods always did not coincide with ones from evaluation d closure of cranial and palatal sutures.
4. Sex and age of the matierials were determined as follows ;
? Y9 was estimated to be male in early sixties.
? Y12 was estimated to be male in late twenties to early thirties.
? Y37 was estimated to be male in early forties.
? Y70 was estimated to be male in early sixties.
? Y87 was estimated to be male in late forties.
? Y109 was estimated to be male in early forties.
? Y129 was estimated to be male in late thirties to early forties
? Y142 was estimated to be male in late fifties to early sixties.
