Various cranial and facial measurements were taken on 300 adult skulls available in the Department of Anatomy, S. N. Medical College, Agra and the cranio facial indices were calculated. When the measurements were statistically analysed, we have found a positive correlation between the basion prosthion length and the maximum cranial length, maximum cranial breadth and the bizygomatic breadth, nasion prosthion length and basion bregmatic height, and the palatal breadth and palatal length. The regression line between the various pairs of parameters were also calculated and a regression formula derived.
