Blood groups, serum proteins, and red cell enzymes in the Nganasans(Tavghi)‐reindeer hunters from Taimir Peninsula
Abstract The Nganasans are made up of two recently tribal populations. These, the Avam and Vadey, were established in the seventeenth century from small reindeer hunting bands, themselves apparently descended from the Yukaghir. Data on 13 blood systems have been described for the first time in the V...
