Table 1. Landmarks used in the geometric morphometric analysis of human craniofacial shape.
Coordinate data on these landmarks were collected by Baab (2007) and Baab et al. (2010). The landmarks chosen for the analysis performed here are a subset of those used by Baab et al. (2010), consisting mainly of facial landmarks. Landmark numbers and descriptions correspond to those in Baab (2007).
