TABLE G-. Upper facial index of Kollmann among various tribes.

Iii '27 skulls the upper facial index of Kollraaim has been computed (Tables xxxn, xxxm) its 

 minimum is -17.05, its maximum 00.93, and its average 52.-18. In this index, as in the analogous 

 index of Virchow, the highest figure for low or broad upper faces is 50. Of the Saladoaus 6 out of 

 "21 belong to this class; the rest have high upper faces, and the average is leptoprosopic. As

 general; but three American tribes exceed them in this particular.
