Type 2 is jsredominant and the others are each present in about equal 

 proportions. All ear types so far considered are European and character- 

 istic of definite somatologic types of the white man. 



Ttpe 1 presents itself on long, lean individuals with long heads and faces, 

 prominent cheek bones, and usually with dark hair and eyes. This ear is design- 

 ated as Cro-Magnon, because the type of man resembles the cave man of Europe. 



Type 2 exists on medium-sized individuals of stocky build, and as it is 

 typical of the Igorots it is designated as Igorot." 



Type 3 is found throughout middle Europe (soutliern Germany, Switzerland, 

 central France) and in America along the Ohio Eiver, in Canada, and on the 

 shores of the Gulf of Mexico, or wherever the inhabitants of central Europe have 

 settled. This ear is termed Alpine, from Ripley's designation of the middle 

 European. It is associated with persons of adipose tendencies, with dark hair 

 and eyes, and broad heads. 



Type 4 is called Iberian, as it is found on small, dark, long-headed individuals 

 representing the Iberian or Mediterranean race of southern Europe. 



Type ,5 occurs most frequently on tall blondes of the Nordic type of northern 

 Europe, and for that reason is designated as Northern. 



ITaturally, it is surprising to find so many Filipinos with ears resem- 

 bling those of the European, and in this connection emphasis should be 

 laid upon the fact that the Filipinos examined liave not been selected 

 because of obvious European traits of physiognoni)', skin color, or some 

 other characteristic, and wherever European traits are apparent the ear 

 of the individual is not noted. At this time, after the second thousand 

 observations have been completed, at least two additional types stand 

 out as piredominently Filipino. Tliese I designate as Negroid and Malay. 



The Negroid ear is small, somewhat pentagonoid in shape, and without lobule. 

 The Malay ear is small and round with a small lobule which forms a horizontal 

 shelf, the helix often appears as if double rolled by the eversion of the edge of 

 the concha (anthelix), and the upper and lower parts of the helix flare slightly. 

 These two types impress themselves upon the majority of Filipino ears, even 

 when the latter resemble European types. 



One more type is selected in addition; a large, well-rounded ear with heavy
