margins are fairly thick and the muscular impressions distinct. The 

 cranium has a cubic capacity of 1,460 c.c. of mustard seed. 



Nornni ct'i-tiniliii. The external angular processes just appear in 

 this view and so probably would the zygomata. The superciliary ridges 

 are obscured by the frontal eminences. The outline is somewhat 

 pentagonal with the breadth relatively very great, the length-breadth 

 index being hyperbrachy cephalic. The parietal foramina are not sym- 

 metrical the left being in the sagittal suture and in a plane anterior to 

 the right which is in its usual site 1 cm. to the right of the middle line.

Idteralis (Fig. 1.). There is distinct subnasal prognathism. 

 The nasal bones are short and the nasion shallow. The glabella is 

 slightly developed, while the superciliary ridges are distinct. The 

 frontal eminences are prominent, smooth and rounded. There is post- 

 piirietal flattening with scarcely any projection of the occipital pole. 



\ormit occipitnlii. The outline forms a low wide pentagon with 

 the upper lateral angles rounded off. The parietal eminences are high 

 up and the sides of the skull tend inwards. The post-parietals form a 

 large part of this view,
