Craniofacial morphology differs between populations in Mainz, Germany, and Zagreb, Croatia. Mainz residents exhibit longer, narrower heads and higher faces compared to Zagreb residents, with significant variations in forehead width and bipupilar distance.

Area of Science:

  • Anthropology
  • Human Biology
  • Craniometry

Background:

  • Previous roentgen-cephalometric studies indicated craniofacial differences between inhabitants of Mainz, Germany, and Zagreb, Croatia.
  • These populations represent broader geographical areas, making comparative morphological analysis relevant.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate and quantify craniofacial morphologic differences between Mainz and Zagreb populations in three dimensions.
  • To identify specific craniofacial parameters that distinguish these two groups.

Main Methods:

  • A sample of 200 healthy adults (males and females) from Mainz and Zagreb was analyzed.
  • Twenty-three standard craniofacial parameters were measured using anthropometric instruments.
  • Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and discriminant analysis.

Main Results:

  • Mainz examinees predominantly displayed longer and narrower head shapes and higher facial structures compared to Zagreb examinees.
  • Statistically significant differences were observed in forehead width and bipupilar distance between the two populations.

Conclusions:

  • Distinct craniofacial morphologic patterns exist between the populations of Mainz and Zagreb.
  • Three-dimensional analysis reveals specific differences in head shape, facial height, forehead width, and bipupilar distance, contributing to our understanding of population variation.
