Percentage frequencies for molar-size sequence of first and second molars, as well as the statistical parameters for the individual differences between the measurements of these molars, were calculated in two human prehistoric aboriginal samples from Gran Canaria and Tenerife Islands using mesiodistal and buccolingual dimensions. Remarkable differences between the two populations, whose cultural and anthropological differences are well established, were observed. The findings support the hypothesis that quantitative analysis of molar size sequence can be useful in establishing phylogenetic relationships between populations.
利用近远中径和颊舌径,计算了大加那利岛和特内里费岛两个人类史前原住民样本中第一和第二磨牙牙冠大小序列的百分比频率,以及这些磨牙测量值之间个体差异的统计参数。观察到这两个人口群体之间存在显著差异,其文化和人类学差异已得到充分证实。这些发现支持了这样一种假设,即磨牙大小序列的定量分析有助于确定不同群体之间的系统发育关系。
