摘要：
Measurements, biometric constants and type contours are given for 255 adult skulls. The [male] and [female] series are probably of the same racial type. The [male][male] are more variable than the [female][female]. The population is more variable than some Dynastic Egyptian populations, but as homogeneous as most for which cranial samples are available. The type is distinctly negroid and the order of closure of sutures, % of metopism and other anomalies are intermediate between Negroes and Europeans. The coefficients of racial likeness are closest with Late Pre-dynastic Upper Egyptian series. It is concluded that the settlement was probably founded in Late Predy-nastic times and that the racial type there persisted unchanged until the 13th Dynasty though the parent population had changed.
