in no way extraordinary; the thickness of the left parietal below 
the temporal ridge ranges from 4 to 5 mm. 
The supraorbital ridges are quite pronounced, but not unusual 
for a male; they are restricted, as is the case in many Indian erania, 
to the median half of the supraorbital distance. The glabella is 
not very prominent. The temporal ridges are moderate; nearest 
approach to sagittal suture 4.5 cm. Occipital ridges, except the 
superior, quite indistinct. The zygome and mastoids are broken; 
the remnants show nothing unusual. , 
The nasion depression is well marked; the interorbital distance is 
moderate (at level of nasion, 2.6 cm.). Nasal bones show fair breadth 
(8 mm. beneath nasion, right 7 mm., left 5 mm., broad). The walls 
of the orbits are rounded, not unduly heavy; orbital depth ordinary. 
Parietal foramina absent, mastoidal moderate. The situation and 
inclination of the foramen magnum (so far as it is possible to judge) 
and the depth of the glenoid fosse are as in an ordinary Indian skull. 
The sutures show medium complexity and are considerably in- 
volved by synostosis (senile). This is most marked in the coronal 
and the anterior part of the sagittal suture, but extends in lesser 
degree through the rest of the sagittal and the whole lambdoid. All 
the sutures about the temporal bone, and the fronto-sphenoidal, 
fronto-malar, fronto-nasal, and internasal articulations are still free. 
Ventrally the skull shows but few brain impressions, except on the 
temporals, as among modern Indians. The metopic crest is low. 
The capacity must have exceeded 1,500 c. ¢. 
The skull is dolichocephalic (cephalic index, 73.75) and quite high 
(basion-bregma very nearly 14.0 cm.). The nasal index can not be 
determined. The orbits were probably mesoseme.
