Norma frontalis. The face is broad with a total facial index of 

 887. The orbits are microseme and the nasal aperture is broad and 

 cordate with an index of 5O9. There is subnasal prognathism. 



Norma basilaris. The palate is elliptical and the posterior 

 palatine spine prominent and sharp. All the upper teeth are present, 

 except the two central incisors, which have dropped out. The cusps 

 of the molar and premolar teeth are little worn and well-formed. 

 The lower incisor teeth are worn flush, and must have been in apposi- 

 tion without any over-lapping of the upper incisors. The combined 

 length of the upper molar and premolar teeth is 43 mm., and as the 

 basinasal length is 100 mm., the dental index is 43, that is mesodont. 

 Both the first upper molar teeth have four cusps, while the second 

 and third upper molars have each three cusps, and the crown of the 

 third molar tooth is exactly of the same size and appearance as that 

 of the second molar. 



The right half of the lower jaw with the chin is intact, its angle 

 is 115, the sigmoid notch is wide and shallow, the chin is prominent 

 and the incisor teeth are inclined forwards. The external oblique 

 line is well developed and more so the internal oblique line. Inside 

 the molar teeth and above the internal oblique line, there is a marked 

 thickening of the jaw. 



The other bones of the skeleton are much broken. 



The shafts of both femora are complete, but the heads are 

 detached. The length of the right femur is approximately 450 mm. 

 In the femora the gluteal ridges are not greatly developed, but the 

 limy asperrc are very distinctly pilastered. The platymeric index of 

 the right femur is 73 - 6, while the pilasteric index is 122'2. 



The bodies of both pubic bones are intact, and show a short 

 broad symphysial surface. 



The two radii are complete, and are well marked but rather 

 slender bones : the right radius is 233 mm. in length while the left is 

 235 mm. The olecranon process of the right ulna is broken off, and 

 the lower end of the left ulna is destroyed from both bones we 

 obtain an approximate length of 250 mm. The olecranon and coro-
