Materials and methods: This study was carried out in 2018 on 221 subjects (123 male and 98 female) of Egyptian population, randomly chosen belonging to the age group 18- 60. The finger-prints were taken of all ten fingers over unglazed white paper using printers ink. Pattern of fingerprints were observed by powerful hand lens and recorded, blood group has been tested and finger ridge density was counted in radial area for all fingers. Note was made of the sex, age, occupation
