Basically the ethnographycal researches found that the people is also decendant of Malay mixed with small Mongoloid character yet more prominent their Malay character with thin blend of Monoloid character, unlike Balinese which physical aspect show strong influence of Monoloid. In term of culture the Sasak know less then variety of Balinese do, since they live in simple way in group of villages and not open for outsiders until late when Balinese kingdom controlled them. During the war between Balinese kingdom of Karangasem and Makassar, the Sasak support the Makassar with the back up of Dutch Idische Compagnie.
