摘要：The facial index is length of the face from root of nose to the bottom of the chin, expressed as a percentage of the greatest breadth across the cheek bones. Racial differences are much more marked in relation to face than elsewhere, so it is very useful anthropologically. For this 100 males from Sindhi community between the age group of eighteen to thirty-five years were taken and their facial index was calculated. The result indicated that average facial index in Sindhi individuals was 92.89 Mostly they were Leptoprosopic and Hyperleptoprosopic. The average facial index of Sindhi individuals was not comparable to any other Indian groups studied so far. But it was very close to North European and less than Nigerian population
