5523. The left ulna. 



With the same difference, as the radius, this shows a quadrate, not, as in the Australian, a 

 transversely extended lesser sigmoid cavity. 



5524. The left os innominatum. 



The ilium is longer and larger in proportion to the acetabulum : the sacro-iliac symphysis 

 is longer in proportion to its breadth, whilst it shows reversed proportions in the Australian. 

 The supracotyloid tuberosity is more developed ; and, as a character of age, the present bone 

 shows the completion of the rim of the acetabulum by ossification of the transverse ligament. 



5525. The left femur. 



This is shorter than in the Australian : the shaft is straight ; the neck forms a less open 

 angle with the shaft. As characters of age may be noticed irregular ossifications from the 

 linese asperse, which have extended into the tendons or aponeuroses therein inserted. 



5526. The left tibia. 



This is of the same length as that in the Australian. The shaft is more compressed. 



5527. The left fibula. 



5528. The left astragalus. 



It differs from the Australian in the absence of any indentation at the back part of the 

 tibial surface, and in the greater extent of the anterior calcaneal surface, which is continued 

 by non-articular bone into the contiguous angle of the posterior surface. The ridge on the 

 inner side of the astragalus of the Australian is not developed in the present bone. 



5529. The left calcaneura. 



The hinder prominence is longer, and the under surface is broader and flatter than in the 

 Australian : the outer tubercle is grooved by the peroueal tendon. 



5530. The remaining five bones of the left tarsus. 



The following extract from Mr. Adams's Notes appended to Sir Edward Belcher's ' Voyage 

 of the Samarang,' relates to the above parts of the skeleton of the aged Bornean : 



" In the course of our progress up the river we came to a deserted village, and examined 

 the country around. Our attention being directed to a building on a hill, surmounting the 

 ruined hamlet, we scaled the height, and found it to consist of the tomb of a rajah or other
