Black Southern Africans have earlier mean ages of emergence compared to population samples from the USA, Europe, Australia, and Asia. Sexual dimorphism was detected in the mandibular I1\/M1 emergence sequence (females, M<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>I<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>; males, I<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>M<jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>). The sequence in males is similar in both jaws to males from other sub\u2010Saharan African, USA, and European samples. Females show a similar sequence pattern in the maxilla with other sub\u2010Saharan African, and also Australian and US females of European ancestry. There is a high frequency of polymorphism in the P1P2C1 emergence sequence, with significantly more P2P1C1 maxillary sequences seen among males.
