Abstract This study distinguishes consanguinity, endogamy and social milieu. It reveals three facts: (a) the action of consanguinity is greater on mental capacities than on bodily dimensions; (b) endogmay, when distinguished from consanguinity, has on the contrary a more marked effect on body size than on mental abilities.

In a sample of 282 marriages in New Nubia in Egypt, 39% were between first cousins and 21% between less closely related kin. The average number of liveborn offspring in first-cousin marriages was higher than in marriages between more distant relations and unrelated spouses, but the number of deaths among children of first-cousin couples was also higher.
