| Abstract | espanolLa determinacion sexual es la base del estudio sistematico de restos oseos humanos. En este trabajo se explora la eficiencia diagnostica relativa de dos tecnicas utilizadas para la determinacion sexual en mandibulas del sitio Medano Petroquimica, Argentina. Los metodos usados fueron la inflexion del borde posterior de la rama mandibular y el metodo tradicional basado en multiples rasgos morfologicos mandibulares. El sexo se determino independientemente por dos tecnicos entrenados quienes aplicaron tres veces cada metodo. Los resultados muestran una mayor consistencia operacional interna y eficiencia relativa en la aplicacion del metodo tradicional. Se concluye que, al menos en el caso de los entierros secundarios considerados, la tecnica de Loth y Henneberg (1996) no es un sustituto confiable de la tecnica tradicional. EnglishSex determination is the basis of systematic studies on human skeletal remains. In this paper, we explore the relative diagnostic efficiency of two methods employed to determine sex in mandibles from Medano Petroquimica site, Argentina. Techniques used were the angle of posterior inflexion of mandibular ramus and the traditional method using multiple morphological traits of the mandible. The sex was separatedly assessed by two trained technicians who applied three times each one. Results show a greater consistency and a relative efficiency in the traditional procedure compared to the first one. We conclude that the Loth and Henneberg technique (1996) cannot reliably replace the traditional technique, at least not in the case of secondary burials considered. |
