bones scarce in this series, but they are also invariably small. This 
scarcity may in all probability be regarded as a sign of the absence 
of all disturbances, developmental as well as pathological.

BREGMA AND INCA BONES 
Among the 20 crania in which conditions with respect to these 
facts could be ascertained, there was found one bregma or fontanel 
bone (3x3.1 em.), and one of the so-called Inca‘t bones (diameter, 
8.3x3.5 cm.). There is nothing especially noteworthy in these 
occurrences, both of which, particularly the Inca bone, are of the 
nature of developmental anomalies. 
Pterions.—Among the 19 Munsee skulls in which the pterions could 
be determined there was no case of temporo-frontal contact. In 
all instances the pterion was of the H type, predominantly narrow 
in the males and predominantly medium to broad in the females.

PARIETAL FORAMINA 
These are represented quite poorly. In almost half the skulls 
there are no parietal foramina at all, while in most of the remainder 
they range from very minute to medium size, of which latter there
