Nonmetric population-specific sex estimation based on the skull using logistic regression for Flemish samples

There are very few sex estimation methods specifically designed for or tested on Belgian skulls. The currently used methods for European populations have been developed using North American collections where individuals are categorized as White and/or having European ancestry.
