    The correct answer is True

    It is the scientific area that studies the bones. It results from the application of knowledge of Anthropology to questions of law with regard to the identification of cadaverous remains (necroidentification).

    Through bones, we can obtain data on the sex, age, stature of the deceased and details of the person's life (eating habits, some diseases, injuries, etc.)

    Excavation findings can have several origins: corpses abandoned in an advanced stage of decomposition, disfigured bodies resulting from mutilations, or corpses that may correspond to individuals who are victims of mass disasters (aviation accidents, shipwrecks, natural disasters, etc.).

    However, this study is only complete if it is possible to collect data that, in comparative terms, can individualize the person, because only with the data related to sex, age, body proportions it is practically impossible to identify the corpse.
