length is 1 centimeter less, the head width is 5 millimeters more, the 

 head height is 1 millimeter more. The nose length is 3 millimeters less, 

 and the nose width is 3 millimeters more. The lower face height is 4 

 millimeters less, the total face height is 3 millimeters less, and the 

 bizj'gomatic width is 2 millimeters more. The frontal circumference is 

 2 millimeters more, the parietal circumference is 1 millimeter more, the 

 forehead circumference is 2 millimeters less, and the occipital circumfer- 

 ence is 9 millimeters less. The number of decayed teeth is 2.1 less, and 

 the age is 1.3 years more. The cephalic index is 7.2 more, the nasal 

 index is 10.9 more, and the stature is 5 millimeters less. 



The blending type is below the average European stature (10), and 

 would be considered small in comparison, the head is moderately brachy- 

 cephalic, and the nose is mesorhinian. The face is wide and short. The 

 tj'pe which is nearest this one in all dimensions should be the one which 

 has exerted the greatest influence in molding the blend. A surve)' of the 

 types in the following table reveals the differences :

The blending type is nearer the modified Iberian in standing stature, 

 sitting stature, and weight: it is nearer the Primitive in cephalic index 

 and nasal index; it is nearer the modified B. B. B. in morphologic face 

 index and pli3'"sioguomic face index; it is nearer the modified Adriatic in 

 the number of decayed teeth, but the modified Alpine is as near as the 

 modied B. B. B. in physiognomic face index. The Australoid is very 

 near in the two facial indices, tlie modified Alpine is near in standing 

 stature and the modified B. B. B. is near in sitting stature. The Blend- 

 ing type seems to be molded in body more by the European types, and in 

 head form and nose form by the Eastern tj^pes. The face form is also 

 probably molded more by the Eastern types, because it is similar to the 

 Alpine, B. B. B., and x\driatic, and the Alpine is believed to be Asiatic 

 in origin and the Adriatic and B. B. B. are related to the Alpine. The 

 Iberian, then, is the only distinct European type, and the notable diiler- 

 ences between this type and the others lie in head form, nose form, face 

 form, and number of decayed teeth.
