Comparative data on the innominate bones are given in the next 
table. The Arkansas and Louisiana specimens, as well as those of 
other Indians, agree closely with those of the Munsee. ‘The innomi- 
nate of the whites, on the other hand, is both higher and especially 
broader, hence it shows a higher index in both sexes. Emmons, 
from his 217 Indian female pelves, obtained as an average height 
of the innominate 19.3 cm., and as the breadth 14.5 cm., with a 
mean index of 74.8. These results agree closely with those of the 
writer and strengthen the evidence that the innominate bones in the 
Indians average somewhat smaller in both dimensions, and are also 
somewhat narrower relatively than those in the whites.
