We prove a new formula for the cellular homology coefficients of real flag manifolds in terms of the height of certain roots. For real flag manifolds of type A, we get simple expressions for the coefficients that allow us to compute the first and second integral homology groups exhibiting their generators.

Keywords: Real flag manifolds, symmetric group, root systems, Schubert cells, homology.
