在印度的不同部落和种姓人群中,研究了头部形状与气候变化之间的关系。头指数的大小在不同的区域有很大的差异。在热带地区,头型较长(长头型),但在温带地区,头型较圆(中头型或短头型),特别是在在册部落(ST)和在册种姓(SC)中。这些趋势可能支持在印度ST和SC之间的头部形状差异的气候适应模型。Am. J. 13:626-634,2001中所述。出版于2001年Wiley利斯公司
The relationship between head form and climatic variation was investigated in different tribal and caste populations of India. The magnitude of the cephalic index varies significantly in different zones. In tropical zones, head form is longer (dolicocephalic), but in temperate zones, head form is more round (mesocephalic or brachycephalic), especially among Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Scheduled Castes (SC) than among other castes. These trends possibly support a climatic adaptation model in head form differences among ST and SC in India. Am. J. Hum. Biol. 13:626–634, 2001. Published 2001 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
