if the Hulule men be excepted, for they are the shortest of all. 
But they are only nine in number. 
(b) Head dimensions (Length, Breadth and Cranial Height): 
The Minikoi men provide the smallest heads, whether length, 
breadth or cranial height be taken. The Addu men come again 
into contrast, for they have the largest heads. The contrast is 
most marked in respect of length and it will be noted that this is 
in accord with the fact noted above, viz. that the men of Addu are 
the tallest. The other groups are again intermediate. 
(c) Cephalic Index: The Minikoi men are more frequently 
(21:05 per cent.) and more intensely brachycephalic. The Addu 
men are more frequently and more intensely dolichocephalic. 
The remainder occupy an intermediate position in regard to this 
index. . 
(d) Altitudinal Index: The Minikoi men have higher (and 
therefore more spherical) heads: the Addu men are not markedly 
distinct from the other Maldive groups in this respect. It is to be 
noted that the shortness of the head in the Minikoi men, as well 
as their lower stature, are influential factors in the production of 
this result, as are also the opposite characters presented by the 
other groups. 
(ec) Nasal dimensions (viz. length, width), and index. The 
Minikoi men present a curious series of contrasts in this respect.
