same correction factor (1.48) is applied to my own determination of the 

 capacity of the Trinil calvaria, a capacity of 853.5 c.c. is obtained. Thus, if 

 H. erectus II had a capacity of 775 c.c, H. erectus I would have had a capac- 

 ity of about 844 to 854 c.c, or, in round figures, 850 c.c. (Tobias 1967a). It 

 therefore would be more correct to use the value of 850 c.c. in the future as 

 the capacity of H. erectus I of Java, instead of 900 c.c. (Dubois 1898), 935 

 c.c. (Weinert 1928), or 900 to 950 c.c. (Aliens Kappers and Bouman 1939). 



Homo erectus crania from Sangiran, Indonesia 



Five crania from Sangiran have permitted estimates to be made of 

 their internal capacity. 



Homo erectus II of Indonesia (Figures 25 and 26). This was originally 

 estimated by von Koenigswald as having an endocranial capacity of 750 c.c. 

 An earlier estimate by Weidenreich, subsequently disavowed by him, gave 

 850 c.c, while Boule and Vallois (1957) cited 815 c.c. Most workers have 

 accepted Weidenreich's final estimate of 775 c.c. (Weidenreich 1943; Jacob 

 1966; von Koenigswald 1968), and this is the value I have listed in my tables 

 (1965c, 1967a) and used for estimating the endocranial capacity of the Trinil 

 calvaria. 



Homo erectus III of Indonesia. This is cited by Weidenreich (1943) 

 as having a capacity of ca. 880 c.c. and "close to 900 c.c." Both values are 

 included in my tables, and the middle value of 890 c.c. has been used in 

 the computation of means. 



Homo erectus IV of Indonesia. Several years ago Dr. Wandel, under 

 the direction of Professor von Koenigswald, completed a new reconstruc- 

 tion of the cranium of H. erectus IV, formerly ascribed by von Koenigs- 

 wald to Pithecanthropus modjokertensis and by Weidenreich to P. ro- 

 bustus. Although his results had not yet been published. Professor von 

 Koenigswald generously allowed me to cite the capacity he determined on 

 Wandel's new reconstruction: it is 750 c.c. (Tobias 1967a). The new esti- 

 mate of the endocranial capacity has since been published by von Koenigs- 

 wald (1967). 



Homo erectus VI of Indonesia. This cranium was discovered by a 

 farmer in the Sangiran dome area in August 1963 (Sartono 1964; Jacob
