Most characteristics of metallic materials are influenced by crystallographic orientation of grains. Measurement of crystal orientation is therefore important for effective use of metallic materials. However, the most methods employed for orientation measurement require expensive apparatus and technical skills. Meanwhile, indentation testing is easy to perform and the imposed micro-indentation geometry on a grain is possible to reflect its crystallographic orientation. The present study aims to establish the method to evaluate crystallographic orientation of grain in polycrystalline metal, based on the indentation geometry. The indentation tests with triangular pyramidal indenter were carried out on pure titanium grains, of which crystal orientations were premeasured by electron backscattered diffraction method. Thus, the relationship between the crystallographic orientation and the indentation geometry was discussed. The results indicated that the directions of <0001> axis and <21^^-1^^-0> axis projected on sample surface were well-correlated with the deviation of te indentation shape from the ideal one. This fact suggests the possibility to evaluate crystallographic orientation by the imposed indentation geometry.
