Sexing of sacrum by sacral index and Kimura's base-wing index

A study for sexing of sacra was carried on 64 sacra (32 male & 32 female sacra) by two methods. One method used was sacral index and the other method was Kimura's base-wing index. The measuring instrument used was sliding vernier caliper. The method of sacral index showed high success rate as compared with Kimura's base-wing index method.
