O que sabemos de Dune Messiah:
The woman killed was Lichna, the daughter of Otheym. Scytale murders
her to assume her identity to get close to Paul. The reader knows
this, but the characters in the story do not.
Então, primeiro, sabemos que a identificação genética é impossível.
"We may never learn who it was died here," he said. "The head, the
teeth are gone. The hands... Unlikely such a one had a genetic
record somewhere to which her cells could be matched."
Além disso, o que ela estava vestindo no momento de seu assassinato não era particularmente Fremen. Ela não estava usando um traje-destilador, mas uma túnica azul:
"We have the woman here," Farok said. "Do you wish to see her now?"
"I've seen her," Scytale said. "I've studied her with care. Where is
she?"
Farok snapped his fingers.
The youth took up his rebec, drew the
bow across it. Semuta music wailed from the strings. As though drawn
by the sound, a young woman in a blue robe emerged from a doorway
behind the musician. Narcotic dullness filled her eyes which were the
total blue of the Ibad. She was a Fremen, addicted to the spice, and
now caught by an offworld vice.
Assim, com a maioria das principais carências faltando (dental / cranial), e sem registro genético, e nada particularmente Fremen sobre qualquer roupa ou bugigangas que poderiam ter sido deixadas onde o corpo foi jogado - como alguém poderia saber se o corpo era Fremen?
Provavelmente, através da Antropologia Forense .

Determination of Race from the Skeleton through Forensic
Anthropological Methods.
FORDISC, a computer program developed at the University of Tennessee,
is another metric technique reviewed that not only distinguishes
Whites, Blacks, and Native Americans but also male Hispanics, Chinese,
and Vietnamese. Platycnemia, femoral curvature and other morphological
attributes of the post-cranial skeleton may be used in support of a
racial determination; however, several investigators have turned to
post-cranial elements not only to use in support of cranial findings
but for use when cranial information is not available. As a result,
several discriminant functions from measurements of the pelvis, femur,
tibia or combinations of these elements have been developed. Accuracy
for these techniques varies from 57% to 95%, depending on the sample
and technique used. Other aspects of the femur, such as the diameter
of the neck, height of the intercondylar notch and femoral curvature,
have been measured for assessment of race.
Assim, é possível ler um esqueleto parcial para uma "impressão digital" racial, mesmo com nossa tecnologia hoje. Eu imagino que seria uma questão simples para um médico Suk estudar os restos do esqueleto e observar algumas características únicas do Fremen.
Então, essa teria que ser a resposta, já que os ossos eram realmente tudo o que restava naquele momento.
