  • Title: Identification of skulls by video superimposition.
    Author: Iten PX.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1987 Jan; 32(1):173-88. PubMed ID: 3819676.
    Abstract:
    A method of matching skulls with photographic portraits or impressions of the face in clay by video superimposition is described. Two different practical cases are presented. The first one deals with the identification of a skull of a six-year-old girl, the second with the identification of the skull of the famous Swiss Pedagogue Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi, who died about 160 years ago. The advantages and versatility of this method are shown; also the setup of the equipment and the working technique.
