As in the case of the scaphoid, the three measurements of the 
cuboid give rise to two indexes which express the relative proportion 
of the bone. Both of these indexes, as seen by the table, are higher 
in the males than in the females, especially on the left side, showing 
that the male bone is relatively broader as well as thicker. 
The indexes also show slight differences on the two sides, but these 
are not parallel in the two sexes; in the males both are slightly 
higher on the right side, while in the females the condition is reversed 
owing to the fact that while in the males the length of the bone is 
slightly less on the left, im the females it is shghtly greater on that 
side than on the right. 
The Munsee cuboid contrasted with that of the United States 
whites is, as in all the other bones of the tarsus, slightly smaller in 
every dimension, and it differs also from the latter to a moderate 
degree in its relative proportions; but these differences, as seen in the 
following table, are somewhat irregular and can not be regarded as 
established before a larger series of specimens is examined.
