FOWKE] ANTIQUITIES OF MISSOURI 107 
Original no. 110 (from Easley mound no. 2): Pieces of the upper 
and lower jaws of an adult male. The lower jaw is unusually broad 
and short, and belonged in all probability to a brachycephalic cra- 
nium. The bones are of medium strength; the teeth are moderately 
worn anteriorly, and much more so, particularly on the outside, pos- 
teriorly. The genial spines are unusually high (7 mm.). In about 
the locality where the submaxillary gland lay against the bone there 
is, on the left side, an abscess cavity and on the right side a deepened 
and rough depression. These lesions point doubtless to disease of the 
glands which secondarily affected the bone. 
The upper jaw shows, on the right side, a short distance below the 
malar articulation, a small pathological perforation.

Original no. 111 (from Easley mound no. 2): Pieces of apparently 
deformed (flat-head ?) male skull and jaws. The walls of the cranial 
cavity are thick; the lower jaw is high (4.3 cm. at the symphisis) and 
strong. The teeth are slightly worn below, much worn above. The 
upper jaw was large and prognathic. 
Original no. 114, U.S. Nat. Mus. no. 249680 (locality not given): 
Half of a female adult lower jaw. Height of symphisis, 3.6 cm.; 
angle on left, 124°; teeth normal, slightly worn. Genial spines pro- 
nounced. 
Original no. 116 (from Baumhoefer mound no. 1): Remnants of a 
well-formed, symmetric, dolichocephalic, adult male skull, of fair 
capacity. The occiput shows a medium-sized epactal. Parts of the 
right vertical ramus of the lower jaw have been cut or gnawed off. 
Teeth normal, but showing advanced and irregular wear. The pal- 
ate presents in its anterior third a quite marked median torus.
