Data from 24 craniofacial dimensions were compiled for samples representing all the human populations of the world. These were converted into C scores and used to construct Euclidean Distance dendrograms. The populations of the world are best depicted as 8 major regional clusters representing: Africa, Amerind, Asia-Mainland, Australo-Melanesia, Eskimo-Siberia, Europe, India, and Jomon-Pacific. The mainland Asian cluster divided into northern and southern components. The Neolithic in both areas is less clearly associated with the northern or southern components and may represent the form of their undifferentiated precursors. This needs to be tested by the addition of further specimens and an adequate sample from South China. Mongols are peripheral members of the Asia-Mainland cluster and should not be thought of as typifying the region as a whole. The use of the term "Mongoloid" is inappropriate in both theory and practice.
收集了代表世界所有人类群体样本的24个颅面维度的数据。这些数据被转换为C分数,并用于构建欧几里得距离树状图。世界人口最好被描述为8个主要区域集群,分别代表:非洲、美洲印第安人、亚洲大陆、澳大利亚-美拉尼西亚、爱斯基摩-西伯利亚、欧洲、印度和绳纹-太平洋。亚洲大陆集群分为北部和南部两个部分。这两个地区的新石器时代与北部或南部部分的联系不太明显,可能代表了它们未分化的前身的形式。这需要通过增加更多标本和来自中国南方的足够样本进行检验。蒙古人是亚洲大陆集群的边缘成员,不应被视为整个地区的典型代表。“蒙古人种”这一术语在理论和实践上都是不合适的。
