the importance of the changes 

 in human teeth in the process of

tion, so far as not affected by 

 negro admixture, while it has 

 suffered certain local modifica- 

 tions principally due to habitual 

 malnutrition, resembles closely 

 the more pure-blooded Egyp- 

 tians of the Nile Valley. These 

 people, like the valley Egyp- 

 tians, are a composite of closely 

 related northeastern African and 

 southwestern Asiatic or " ha- 

 mitlc " and " Semitic," ethnic 

 elements, and are to be classed 

 with these as part of the south- 

 em extension of the Mediterra- 

 nean subdivision of the white 

 stem of people. A bibliography 

 and detailed measurements are 

 appended. The plates show men 

 of different ages, from the barely 

 adult to advanced senility.
