Abstract: Based on the anthropometry of 2612 Han students born in Xian, and treatment of data with electronic computer, the development markers of the body (for example, body height, sitting height, etc) and some indices were obtained. The development curves were drawn up. The relations between the time of epiphysial fusion with diaphysis in the femur, tibia and fibula and development markers of the body were discussed.
