The study "Distribution of Hereditary Blood Antigens among American Indians in Middle America: Lacandón and Other Maya" by G. Albin Matson, published in American Anthropologist in 1961 (Vol. 63, Issue 6), examines blood group frequencies in Maya populations, finding that they are predominantly group O, which is typical for American Indian groups. The study also notes the presence of A and B genes, suggesting potential racial crossing, and observes that more isolated Maya communities, such as the Lacandón, Tzeltal, Tzotzil, and Mam, exhibit the highest frequencies of the O gene.
