Aims & Objective: In this study an attempt is made to find out correlation and to derive a regression formula between head length ( glabella to inion ) and total body height in Maharashtra region. Material & Method: The study is conducted on 406 medical and paramedical students from Maharashtra region. The age was in range of 17 to 22 years. The length of head is measured between the two fixed points i. e. between Glabella and Inion. To measure this length the spreading Vernier caliper was used. These measurements were done between fixed times to avoid the diurnal variation. The results obtained were analyzed and attempt was made to derive the formula between head length and total height of an individual. Result: The result from this study showed definite correlation between head length and height of an individual, in spite of racial and ethnical variation. Conclusion: The data from present work will be definitely useful not only for anatomist but also for anthropologist and also in forensic medicine and sciences.

Key Words: Regression formula, head length, total height, anthropologist.
