摘要
作者将柳江人的右侧股骨残段作了复原。根据华南人由肢骨测量身高的公式,如果柳江人股骨属男性,其身高为156.69±3.74厘米,比现代当地居民的平均身高偏矮。
The authors made a reconstructed femur based on fragment of femur of paleolithie age found in 1958 from a cave in Liujiang County, Guangxi. The length of this reconstructed bone is 40.6 cm.The femur is supposed as belonging to a male individual, whose stature should be 156.69 ± 3.74cm as calculated with a formula suggested by Mo Shitai (1983) based on Han skeleton from South China. It is calculated to be 157.0±3.59 em with a formula suggested by wang Yonghao (1979) based on Han skeleton from Sichuan Province. Liujiang man was shorter than the average modern men living in the same area by 6-7cm.However, the femur was not impossible to belong to a woman. If so, she should be 152 cm tall and was shorter than the average modern women living in the same area by 3 cm.
