Abstract excerpt
Data for 14 red cell enzyme systems, haemoglobin and four serum proteins are presented for 351 people from the island of Ndeni in the Santa Cruz group of the British Solomon Islands Protectorate. The results support the view based on linguistic studies that the Ndeni population is derived from a mixing of older Papuan and later Austronesian-speaking peoples.
