Populations living in the African Sahel/Savannah belt have a different facial morphology when considering their subsistence. In this study we investigated whether the lifestyle has an impact also on sexual dimorphism by means of several geometric morphometrics methods. We have shown that the facial traits which correlate with a subsistence strategy are systematically associated with levels of facial sex-typicality and that faces with more pronounced pastoralist features have on average more masculine facial traits and that this effect is more pronounced in men than in women. Though, the magnitude of overall facial dimorphism does not differ between pastoralists and farmers, pastoralists (in contrast to farmers) tend to have a more masculine facial morphology but facial differences between the sexes are in both groups the same.
