Effects of altitude, ethnicity‐religion, geographical distance, and occupation on adult anthropometric characters of eastern Himalayan populations
With a view to estimating the effect of altitude on body dimensions vis‐à‐vis ethnicity‐religion, geographical distance, and occupation, a comprehensive multivariate statistical analysis was performed on data pertaining to 16 anthropometric characters collected from 1,103 individuals (643 males and 460 females) belonging to two ethnic groups—Sherpa and Lepcha. Samples were drawn from several locations in the eastern Himalayan region—Darjeeling an…
Anthropometry of Sherpa men
On 109 male Sherpas, aged 18--85 years, 24 anthropometric measurements were performed, including weight, height, 18 bony measurements, 2 limb circumferences, and 4 skinfolds. From these data, upper and lower limb lengths, 12 indices, and total body fat were calculated. The Sherpas are of medium stature and body build, with Mongoloid cranial and facial characteristics and very little body fat. Their relatively large chests, long legs, and large ca…
