Abstract: This report describes the polymorphism analysis for mtDNA D-loop high variable region of ancient human bone,which were from the tumulus in Wupu, Hami, Xinjiang, China. Combining with the data of morphological analysis of physical anthropology,we studied and discussed the race identification by using the molecular biotechnology methods. The results show that there were Yellow race and European in these tumuli and they might coexist in the district of Hami,Xinjiang 3200 years ago.
