Abstract
The study was conducted on Haryanvi 800 adults comprising of 400 males and 400 females. Measurements were taken using standard anthropometric instruments.i.e. varnier calliper and anthropometric rod. The purpose of study was to access the bizygomatic diameter and stature and to find out the correlation between them. The data were then analysed by statistical software. The mean bizygomatic diameter for male and female were 13.08 and 12.35 respectively. The mean stature was 168.71 in male and 155.18 in female. Both the measurements were more in males then females. The results showed a statistically significant correlation between bizygomatic diameter and stature in both sexes.
