The study of fusion of cranial sutures for age estimation is an important parameter for anthropologist and forensic experts from past time. Various sutures were examined macroscopically for age estimation such as Metopic, Cranial, Saggital and Lambdoid suture etc. The metopic suture is present between two halves of frontal bones in midline going from Nasion to Bregma during infancy. Usually this suture is not appreciable in adult skulls. Metopsim is the presence of complete metopic suture from Nasion to Bregma in adult skull. AIM: The present study is done to find out the incidence of Metopism and its medico–legal significance. Material and Method: The total of 149 skulls was examined macroscopically during routine autopsy procedure with regard to the presence (metopism: M). Results: It was observed that Metopism was present in 9 skulls (6.04%) of the skull examined, of which (5/92) were male and (4/57) were female.
