本文使用扫描电镜和光镜对战国古尸的头发进行了研究。结果表明:毛干较现代人发细,毛小皮很薄,纹理不清,有的部位,毛小皮脱落,皮质裸露,并可见坑沟。色素颗粒分散分布于皮质和髓质,有的皮质外部稍多,有的髓质内有色素呈团块状集聚。

The Scalp hair from an ancient cadaver in Warring states tomb was observed under Light microscope and scanning electron microsoope. The hair shaft is finer than that of modern human being, the cuticles are very thin and the grains formed by the free magin of cuticles are not clear. Some of the cuticles are fallen and the cortex is exposed, sometimes furrows and holes may be found on the surface of the hair shaft. Pigment granules are scattered in both medullary and cortical cells. Some of then are more numerus in the outer part of the cortex, and some of them are gathered at the medulla in Lumps
