WHOLE VOL. SKELETAL REMAINS OF EARLY MAN HRDLICKA 281 



Partly before and partly since the preceding publication, Dr. Martin 

 has finished the three volumes of his detailed studies. Regrettably 

 these volumes are not as well known outside of France as they deserve 

 to be. They contain not merely all the separately published studies 

 but also much additional work with many illustrations. The last 

 volume is devoted es])ecially to the human skeletal remains. 



This volume was published in Paris in 1923.' Here in 260 pages. 

 Dr. Martin enumerates the skeletal finds up to date, and then deals 

 exhaustively with the La Quina skeleton. 



The remains comprise now the following : 



H I, H i' — 1908, layer C 3: 2 astragali, right and left, found at a short dis- 

 tance from each other ; of same proportions and belonging probably to the same 

 individual. 



H 2 — 1908, layer B 2: Fragment of an occipital, with the right half of the 

 occipital torus. 



// J — 1910, layer C 2: A dorsal vertebra, near the 9th. 



H 4, H 4' — 191 1, layer C 2: Lower left M3 and lower right M2; found 

 about 3 feet apart. 



H 5 — 191 1, layer B 3: The human skeleton; skull with lower jaw, cervical 

 vertebra, humerus, femora. 



H 6 — 1912, layer B 2: Fragments of a parietal. 



H 7 — 1912, layer C 2: Fragment of the left frontal, with a part of the supra- 

 orbital arch. 



H 9 — 1922, layer C 2: Lower jaw, with 5 molars; chin less sloping; teeth 

 in very good condition. 



H 10 — 1913, layer B 3: A left temporal; very robust; found 3 feet above 

 skeleton H 5. 



H II — 1913: Occipital, fragment of the left region; occipital torus developed. 



H 12 — 1913 : M2, fragment of left frontal, with supraorbital arch (broken) 

 and orbital roof. 



H 13 — 1913; M2, fragment of a parietal. 



H 14 — 1908; H I : Portion of a left parietal of a young subject. 



H 15 — 1913, layer B 2: Posterior part of the right parietal of a young subject. 



H 16 — 1913, layer C 2: Fragment of a left temporal. 



H 17 — 1913, layer C i : Left lower canine. 



H 18 — 1915, layer C 2: Skull of a child, aged about 8 years; discovered by 

 the wife and a son of Dr. Martin; the lower jaw missing. 



H 19 — 1920, layer B 3 : Left patella. 



H 2i', 22', 23' — 1921, layer C 2: 4 teeth (left upper M2, left upper M3, 

 right upper Pm, root of a canine) ; these four teeth were found together. 



For the many details of Dr. Martin's erudite study of the skeleton, 

 the student must consult the original. The main conclusions are as 

 follows : 



Sex: Uncertain; certain indications and a relative slenderness of the bones 

 would indicate a female, but the heavy supraorbital arches, zygomata, jaws, and 

 teeth are not female.
