Abstract


Creases provide important clues for the study of bimanual and bisexual variation. The purpose of the present investigations is to attempt the specificity of transverse palmar flexion creases among Lodhis, of Sagar district (MP), India. The basis of the study was 103 males and 102 females unrelated individuals of Lodhis'. For taking palm prints Cummins and Midlow (1859) method were fully adopted. The analysis of palmar creases was done in accordance with the method proposed by Bali and Choube (1971). The values in this study are of a qualitative in nature so the statistical interpretation of the data has been made by means of the chi-square test. The result shows significant bisexual and noticeable bimanual variation of transverse creases among Lodhis'.
