The supraorbital ridges show good but not extraordinary masculine develop- 
ment; they extend along the median three-fifths of the supraorbital space. 
The forehead is low and very sloping. Its slight arching is gradual, show- 
ing no distinct frontal bend or eminences. A well-marked elevation is observed 
in the median line from above the ophryon to near the bregma. Sagittal eleva- 
tion was not pronounced. 
The skull was apparently of good size. The diameter frontal minimum 
measures 9.8 em. 
K.—SKULL FROM MOUND IN ORANGE COUNTY, INDIANA (NO. 243855) 
(Plate xxT) 
This specimen is reconstructed on a plaster base from pieces, and while in 
point of repair not perfect the main features of the vault are easily discerni- 
ble. It is a long and narrow but not in any degree scaphocephalic or otherwise 
deformed skull, with a low, sloping, and but moderately arched forehead. 
The supraorbital ridges and glabella are quite pronounced, but their extent and 
yolume are not clearly appreciable owing to the defective condition of the 
fragments. These features and the good-sized mastoids indicate a masculine 
cranium. 
The sagittal region is quite elevated, giving the transverse plane above the 
shape of a pointed arch. The temporal ridges and occipital crests suggest 
strong musculature. 
Occlusion is adyanced in the sagittal and lambdoid sutures, and extends in 
some measure into the coronal, but there is no sign that the process in any place 
was premature. 
The thickness of the skull is moderate and its capacity must have been good.
