Abstract: Let p=3n+1 be a prime with ninmathbbN=0,1,cdots, and let ginmathbbZ be a primitive root modulo p. Let 0<a1<cdots<an<p be all the cubic residues modulo p in the interval (0,p). Then clearly the sequence a_1 { m mod} p, a_2 { m mod} p,cdots, a_n { m mod} p is a permutation sp(g) of the sequence g^3 { m mod} p, g^6 { m mod} p,cdots, g^{3n} { m mod} p. In this paper, we shall determine the sign of this permutation.
