The tibia is the strong weight bearing bone of the leg. It has usually a single nutrient foramen. Of late, tibia is gaining importance in determining the stature, sex and race of individuals and in the identification of missing persons. The dry bone specimens were obtained from the department of anatomy of our institution. A total of seven morphometric parameters were obtained for the study. The number of nutrient foramen present and their location were recorded. The cross sectional index, cnemicus index, length-thickness index, and the proximal - distal surface index were arrived from the data obtained. A single nutrient foramen was observed in the study; located in the upper one third of tibia in its posterior surface. The results are presented as descriptive statistics (mean ± SD); and standard errors of estimate (SEE) for right and left tibia and total tibia. The mean differences obtained are not statistically significant. The confidence interval of SD or SEM is less than 1. The two – tailed P value equals less than 1and is not statistically significant. Tibia has a single nutrient foramen in the upper one third of tibia in its posterior surface. The morphometric parameters obtained and the indices derived differed widely among the different studies. The differences may be due delicate variations in the measurements. There is a need for defining the parameters by further studies for the better utilization of morphometry of tibia.
