ir. FILIPINO TYPES : MALECON MORGUE. 309 



and onl_y three B. B. B. Morgue subjects; therefore, the close ap- 

 2H-oximation of these to the 30 Alpine students and 31 B. B. B. students 

 is remarkable and emphasizes the types as real entities. The differences 

 between the Alpine and B. B. B. types are not so great in the characters 

 measured as in the characters observed, such as the square head of the 

 B. B. B. and the round head of the Alpine, the square ear of the B. B. B. 

 and tlie round ear of the Alpine, and the general stocky build of the 

 B. B. B. and the rotundity of the Alpine, although the head of the 

 strident B. B. B. is 5 millimeters longer and 3 millimeters wider than 

 that of the Alpine, and the head circumferences of the B. B. B. are 

 all larger. The face of the Student B. B. B. is i millimeters longer and 

 3 millimeters wider than the face of the Alpine, and the nose is 2 

 millimeters longer and 1 millimeter wider. The cephalic index is less 

 for the B. B. B. than for the Alpine. The two types would be classed 

 as one if it were not for the differences mentioned, all of which are 

 slight, however, and the separation may prove to be an arbitrary one. 

 I have already expressed an opinion that the B. B. B. is the result of 

 the union of the Alpine and Iberian with possibly Cro-Magnon elements, 

 and I still persist in holding that opinion. 



THE CKO-MAGNON TYPE. 



This type is the tallest thus far encountered in the Philippines, and 

 the cephalic index is the least of all the types from the Morgiie. The 

 nasal index is high, the morphologic face index is also high, as well as 

 the brachial, crural, and intermembral indices. In other words, the 

 head is long and narrow, the nose is short and wide, the face is long and 

 relative^ narrow and the forearms, lower legs, and upper extremities 

 are relatively longer than those of the other types. The Cro-Magnon 

 students are largely blended with the other types and partake only to a 

 slight extent of the Cro-Magnon characteristics, as may be seen by 

 reference to the table above, and as expressed in the paper on Manila 

 Students. 



The Cro-Magnon resembles the Australoid in cephalic index, nasal 

 index and other characteristics, but is distinctly different in stature, the 

 iiustraloid being the smallest of all types, and the Cro-Magnon the 

 tallest. A relation between the two, similar to that which exists between 

 the B. B. B. and Alpine, may be true, but the relationship is not so 

 intimate. 



THE ADRIATIC TYPE. 



This tyjje is tall and has broad head, face, and nose. The other 

 characters are not distinctive, although the forearm and lower leg are 

 rather long. The Adriatic is an enlarged reproduction of the Primitive 

 type, but it is as far removed from the latter as the Cro-^Iagnon is from 

 the Australoid. The Chinese element of tlie Adriatic may account in 

 part for the difference.
