1 From Hrdlicka, A. Report on Skeletal remains from Arkansas and Louisiana. Journ. Acad. Nat. 

 Sci. Phila., 1909, vol. 14, pp., 173-240; Anthropology of Florida. Fla. St. Hist. Soc, Deland, 1922, vol. 1; 

 and newer data. 



2 1.5-22 undeformed and deformed skulls in which face was not perceptibly aflected. 



8 But 1 or 2 specimens in which the determination was possible. 



* In 7 crania, after elimination of 3 decidedly exceptional. 



8 In 15 brachycranic specimens. 



12. The Navaho, though speaking Athapaskan, are, as was indi- 

 cated hj the writer long before,^ not Apache, but essentially Pueblo. 

 They are a mixture evidently of various old pueblo elements, dolicho, 

 as well as brachycranic, with traces of the Apache. It is merely 

 one more of the many cases among the American tribes where the 

 language and the physical make-up of the group have but little 



relation.
