2010年陕西省考古研究院在南寨子遗址半坡文化墓葬M2、M3、M4和M5中采集了一批人骨。因骨骼保存状况较差,头骨大多破成碎片,多数骨骼只能进行性别、年龄的推断,无法进行系统的种族人类学的研究。
The sex ratio of the unearthed male and female remains at the Nanzhaizi Yangshao culture site is 0.75:1.It means that the number of female was more than that of the male.The racial type of Nanzhaizi people is not only closely related to the modern South Asiatic Mongoloids,but also related to the modern East Asiatic Mongoloids.The tibias of Nanzhaizi people are of the platycnemic type.
