Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy. 



it might somewhat exceed that figure. The skull was probably 

 phsenozygous. The palate is large and elongated. 



Altogether it is a powerful, round-headed cranium, with a strongly- 

 marked face, and belonged to an adult male. 



Norma verticalis. — The nearest form to this skull that I can find 

 in Sergi's essay on "The Varieties of the Human Species" is his 

 platycephalus bogdanovii. It has some resemblance to the Auvergnat 

 type. It is phsenozygous. 



Normm lateralis. — The side view is very similar to that of the last 

 skull, but the forehead is a little fuller and more vertical ; the vertex 

 is more arched, and the posterior parietal region less flattened. 



Norma occipitalis. — The sides and top are well rounded. 



This cranium is brachycephalic, akrocephalic, probably orthog- 

 nathic, leptoprosopic, markedly leptorhine, very microseme, mesopic, 

 but bordering on prosopic, and very dolichuranic. 



While it is probable that these groups are correct, it must be 

 remembered that as the measurements of this and the preceding skull 

 were made upon casts, none of the figures can be accepted as being 

 perfectly accurate.
