Background: There is no known study on the sole dermatoglyphic pattern of the Elele people that could serve as their baseline data; hence, this study was done to provide baseline data for the sole dermatoglyphic patterns of the Elele people of the Ikwerre ethnic group in Rivers State, Nigeria. Material and methods: A Non-experimental analytical and cross-sectional study. 200 subjects [males 107, females 93] pure-breed indigenes of Elele extraction were purposively sampled, on the basis of both parents and grandparents to the fourth generation being natives of Elele. Participants who had distortions and malformations of the sole were excluded from the study. The parameters studied includes: the dermatoglyphic patterns on the soles and toes participants in Elele, Rivers State, Nigeria. The patterns on the sols and toes were observed and classified following the standard procedure. Result and Discussions: The study also showed the following distribution on the toe for the males [arch 253 (47.5%), whorl 134(25.2%), loop 145(27.3%)]; the females on the other hand had [arch 383(40.9%), whorl 289(30.9%), loop 264(28.2%)]. The arch pattern was most frequent in both genders. And the total distribution showed thus: arch 636(43.3%), whorl 423(28.8%), loop 409(27.9%). Dankmeijer’s index [male 1.32, female 1.880, total 1.50]; Pattern Intensity Index [male 84.2, female 41.3, total 125.5]. The results show that the pattern intensity index is greater in females than in males. While the Dankmeijer’s index was higher in males than females. Conclusion: The study showed that the loop pattern was most frequent on area I and II in both genders, whorl pattern was most frequent on area I and II in the males and area I and IV in the females, and the arch pattern was most frequent on area I and II in both genders. The absence of whorl on the toes of males was seen as a characteristic pattern for the males in Elele.
