The form, size, and the condition of development of the skeletal 

 taken together with the cranial bones enable us to say that their 

 owner was a woman between twenty and twenty-four years of age. 

 The femur and tibia, which are respectively i6«8" and 13*4" in 

 length, have their proximal and distal epiphyses anehylosed, with 

 faint traces of the lines of junction still remaining ; the epiphyses 

 are adherent in the cases of the fibulae, but the traces of their lines 

 of junction are very evident, as is also the case with the proximal 

 end of the humerus, which however has its olecranic fossa perforated, 

 and with the distal epiphysis of the radius. The sacrum is not 

 complete, nor the os innominatum, nor the clavicle, but the basi- 

 sphenoid suture is perfectly closed, though the wisdom teeth are 

 not yet quite come into actual use. 



This skull contrasts with the first-described in points charac- 

 teristic of sex, as also in its state of more perfect preservation, in 

 which point indeed it differs from most other skulls in this series, as 

 it does also in its alveolar prognathism. The supraciliary ridges 

 are smaller, the frontal and the parietooccipital regions more 

 vertical, the height, though considerable, less, and the lower jaw
