Sažetak
Morphometric characters of the adult males of the Tai-Phake and the nature and extent of morphometric variation
among five neighboring mongoloid groups of Assam have been examined in the present study. For the sake of investigation
12 anthropometric measurements have been taken and five indices have been calculated. In order to obtain the distance
values size, shape and biological distance are calculated. It revels that the Tai-Phake maintains a far distance with
other five neighboring groups (Ahom, Deuri, Chutia, Mishing and Moran). The Ahom also maintain far distance with
other five groups. While, the Mishing and Moran, and Deuri and Chutia maintain close distance among themselves.
