Resumo(s)
Estudos dos grupos sanguíneos (O, A, B, AB) foram realizados em 482 adultos de Goa (Índia portuguesa) e os dos grupos M e N foram realizados em 100 indivíduos. A partir desse estudo, verificou-se que existe uma predominância do grupo O nos principais grupos da população de Goa, cristãos e hindus.
Mas a diferença serológica entre hindus e mouros é bastante acentuada.
No grupo dos descendentes, verifica-se a predominância do grupo A, que também se observa nos europeus, na tabela de agrupamentos raciais de Ottemberg. No entanto, é necessário notar a seguinte diferença: enquanto nos descendentes a ordem de predominância dos grupos sanguíneos é A, B e O, nos europeus é A, O e B. A incidência mais elevada do grupo B nos descendentes, em relação aos europeus, talvez se deva à influência dravidiana dos povos do sul da Índia, com os quais eles se teriam cruzado anteriormente.
Há uma grande predominância do fator M sobre o fator N nos indivíduos de Goa (ver mapa n.º 2), assim como se observa uma grande diferença na frequência dos fatores M e N na série de hindus observados por Greval, Chandra e Woodhead.
Na nossa série, há uma grande incidência do fator M em indivíduos pertencentes ao grupo O. Não foi encontrado o fator N em indivíduos do grupo A.
Os grupos sanguíneos não constituem, por si só, um elemento seguro de classificação antropológica, sendo, no entanto, um importante elemento de análise etnogenética de um grupo populacional, em conjunto com os dados antropométricos.
The study of the O, A, B, AB blood groups was carried out in 482 adult individuals of Goa (Portuguese India) and the study of the M and N groups in 100 individuals. A great predominancy of the O group in the principal groups of population of Goa, both Christians and Hindus, was verified with this study. But the serological difference between hindus and moors is rather marked. In the group of the descendents the predominancy of the A group is noted. This predominancy is also noted in the Europeans in the table of racial groups of Ottemberg. However the following difference should be noted: while the rank of predominancy of the blood groups is A, B, and O in the descendents it is A, O and B in the Europeans. The higher incidency of the B group in the descendents in relation with the Europeans is perhaps due to the dravidian influence of the peoples of the meridional India with whom they would be crossed before. There is a great predominancy of the M factor on the N factor in the individuais of Goa (see map N.º 2). A great difference in the frequency of the M and N factors in the series of hindus examined by Greval, Chandra and Woodhead can be observed also. ln the series of the author a great incidency of the M factor is observed in the individuals belonging to the O group. The N factor could not be found in the individuais of the A group. The blood groups do not constitute per se a secure element for the anthropological classification. However they are an important element of ethnological analysis of a population group in association with the anthropometrical data.
