varia, 3 readings of the part-capacity amounted to 516, 524, and 531 c.c, giv- 

 ing a mean of 523.67 c.c, or 524 c.c. to the nearest whole number. The ac- 

 cepted value for the total endocranial volume of Sangiran cranium II is 775 

 c.c. (Weidenreich 1943, pp. 115—16).* Hence, the ratio of the total volume 

 (775) to the part-volume (524) is 1.48:1. 



When this correction factor is applied to Dubois's original part-capacity 

 of 570 c.c. for the Trinil calvaria, a total of 843.6 c.c. is obtained. When the 



* It may be noted here that the 745 c.c. mentioned in line 5, page 115, of Weidenreich (1943) is 

 probably a misprint for 775 c.c, since this figure is said to be "a little more than von Koenigs- 

 wald's first estimate" (which was 750 c.c); furthermore, 775 c.c. is cited in the table on Weiden- 

 reich s page 108.
