MONKS oi- KxTitK.MiTiEs. The shaft of the right clavicle is slender 

 and comparatively straight. Pieces of the shafts of the humeri in-

I loth femora are complete and are muscular-looking bones of 

 an average length, and in appearance differ little from that of modern 

 bones. 



These bones then belonged to a brachycephalic male with a
