2. Prof. H. J. Fleube. — The Welsh People: Physical Types. 



Nine distinct physical types are found in Wales. Speaking generally the 

 Welsh show more longheadedness, more dark pigment, and shorter statures 

 than the English, but both are complex minglings of different breeds which in 

 some cases can be correlated with migrations of prehistoric and historic times.

Island. 



In San Cristoval stone images represent the dead chief buried in the pyra- 

 midal structures -with which the images are associated. It is suggested that the 

 statues of Easter Island represent a hypertrophy of one element of a similar 

 association.

The roads now described are the Via Valeria, and its prolongation the Via 

 Claudia Valeria, which, with the Via Tiburtina, formed a continuous highway 

 from Rome to the Adriatic, and the Via Latina. An attempt to discover the 

 course of the Via Herculia from Venusia to Potentia was unsuccessful. One 

 of the finest stretches of Roman pavement in Italy was discovered on the Via 

 Cassia, which leads north from Rome through Etruria.
