Abstract: Objectives: There is paucity of data on age determination from sternum in middle and elderly age groups. In all such cases, while estimating age in middle and elderly age group the forensic experts are facing lot of problem because there are few bones which ossify during this age group and the age calculated gives a bigger range and this study is done with the aim to find out age estimation within short range above thirty years age bracket. This article documents comparison in age of fusion between mesosternum with manubrium sterni and xiphisternum in both the genders based on occupation, climate, and geographical/statewise distribution. Methods: Sterna were removed from the cadavers by sectioning the costal cartilages just besides the costo-chondral junction. Results: Out of total hundred sternum studied, seventy were males and thirty were females. Out of the total one hundred sternum samples retrieved from dead bodies maximum number was 17 (17%) that were businessmen amongst males and maximum of females were 16 (16%) that were housewives. In present study, out of the total one hundred sternum samples retrieved from dead bodies maximum number of cases that is 48 (48%) belonged to individuals who were from temperate climate, in 30-40 years age group. In present study, out of the total one hundred sternum samples retrieved from dead bodies maximum number that is 28 (28%) belonged to individuals from Delhi, in age group between 30-40 years. Conclusion: Majority of sternum samples retrieved from dead bodies of individuals brought for postmortem belonged to 51-60 years age group in males and 30-40 years age group in females. Males (70%) outnumbered the females (30%) in this study. A good number of samples were retrieved from individuals who were businessman (17%) amongst males and housewife (16%) amongst females. Majority of sternum samples were of individuals from temperate climate and Delhi region
