Abstract
The Heath Carter somatotyping method was used to study the adult somatotypes among 456 Daur indivaduals(216 males;240 females) in Molidawa Banner.The results are: (1) The mean somatotypes of males was Endo Mesomorph category (3 4—4 8—2 3) while that of females was Meso Endomorph category(5 2—4 2—1 9).(2) In both sexes the values of Endomorph and Mesomorph increased with decreasing Ectomorph with age (male:20_44 years;female:20_39 years).Somatotypes obviously changed after the age of 30 in male and after 35 in females.(3) There was very significant sexual difference in the somatotype.Females had lower values of Mesomorph and Ectomorph but higher Endomorph than males.(4) The Daur and the Monggol showed extremely significant difference.Daur males are more Mesomorphic and less Endomorphic.In comparison with Mongolian females,Daul females showed less Endomorphic.
