HAWAIIAN SKULLS ^ 



the differences between the crania called here the " cave and the coast crania," 

 are not due to race but to methods of Hving, and in some degree to differences 

 of mental strength in individuals. The cave series represents the dominating 

 and superior type and the coast series the weak and conquered type. I have 

 suggested that some of the contrasts that obtain in the proportions of the 

 face of the crania after European contact may be traced to the impress made 

 upon the individual by the action of the exanthematous diseases. I remain 

 of the opinion that the interest attached to the study of the human skull is 

 not confined to attempting to limit race, but to the study of the effects of 

 nutritive and even morbid processes upon the skull form.
