摘　　要：本文对距今约七千年前的河姆渡新石器时代早期的两具人头骨进行了观察和测量,认为这两具头骨在蒙古人种形态的发育上比旧石器时代晚期的柳江人更明显,同时具有某些类似澳大利亚-尼格罗人种的性状。The human bones studied in this paper were unearthed by the Archaeological Group of Zhejiang Provincial Museum frof early neolithic Hemudu site, Yuyao County, Zhejiang Province in 1977. The age of Hemudu culture, according to C14 dating, is about 7000 years B. P.Among 13 skeletons observed only 4 are adults and the others belong to children about 6-15 years old. Only 2 skulls can be studied because of poor preservation of the material of this site.Based on morphological observation and cranial measurements, skulls of Hemudu have features of both Mongoloid and Negro-Australoid. Some Mongoloid characters of them are more obvious than late paleolithic human skull of Liujiang.Most of neolithic human skulls from southern China have charcteristics of both Mon-goloil and Oceanic Negroid. The similar morphological type can be traced back to paleolithic proto-Mongoloid of southern China. It may be supposed that there are similar gene pool between the ancestors of Oceanic Negroid and the continental proto-Mongoloid of Asia.No evidence of custom of extracting tooth was found on Hemudu skulls.
