Haddon — studies in Irish Craniology. 31S 



appears to have been complex but it is almost obliterated ; lambdoid, 

 No, 4, partially obliterated ; no wormian bones ; the mastoid process 

 is much swollen, but not particularly long. 



P. — Calvarium, old male ; base of cranium imperfect, right 

 squamosal broken, right parietal cracked ; glabella, No. 3 ; coronal, 

 sagittal, and lambdoid sutures obliterated. Mastoid process large and 

 swollen. 



G. — Calvarium, old male; base of cranium and left squamosal 

 wanting, occipital bone broken ; glabella, No. 3 ; sutures : coronal, 

 Nos. 3 to 4 ; sagittal, No. 4, partially obliterated ; lambdoid. No. 4, 

 just commencing to become obliterated ; mastoid process long, but 

 not so swollen as in E and F. 



H. — Calvarium, adult female ; right squamosal broken, left 

 squamosal and base of cranium, &c., wanting; glabella, No. 1 ; 

 sutures : coronal, No. 4 ; sagittal, Nos. 4 to 5 ; lambdoid. No. 5 ; one 

 wormian bone 15 mm. by 5 mm. in coronal suture, and several small 

 ones in the lambda. 



I. — Calvarium, adult female ; the roof of the left frontal sinus 

 partially broken, lower part of left coronal suture damaged ; glabella. 

 No. 1 ; sutures: Nos. 3 to 4; pterion in H, suture, 14 mm. ; a small 

 epactal bone 8 mm. by 5 mm. ; the base of the cranium is flattened. 



K. — Calvarium, old female ; glabella. No. 1 ; sutures all but 

 obliterated, the lambdoid is least so ; base of cranium flattened ; 

 part of the right malar bone is present ; the breadth of the right 

 orbit appears to have been 40 mm., it was probably megaseme. 



L. — Calvarium, old female ; right squamosal and part of base 

 of cranium wanting ; glabella, No. 1 ; sutures remarkably simple, 

 central portion of the coronal. No. 1 ; sagittal, Nos. 3 to 4 ; lambdoid, 

 Nos. 2 to 3 ; pterion in H, suture, 12 to 13 mm.; no wormian bones. 



M. — Calvarium, old female ; glabella broken ; sutures : coronal, 

 Nos. 2 to 4 ; sagittal, Nos. 4 to 5 ; lambdoid, No. 4 ; pterion in H, 

 suture about 15 mm. ; no wormian bones ; base of cranium flat. 



N. — Calvarium, old female ; glabella broken ; sutures of roof of 

 cranium obliterated; pterion in H, suture probably 10 to 15 mm. ; 

 base of cranium flat. 



The basio-bregmatic height is so low in this specimen that I 

 have excluded it from my average total. It is clearly abnormal.
