This places the Taytayans intermediate between the Annamites and 

 Negroes and almost the same as the Belgians and Arabs. 



The relative public lieiglil by Topinard (.31 ) (p. 1074) is somewliat (lifferent: 



l,Oei Whites 50.3 



27 Annamites 51.2 



2,020 Negroes . 51.8 



That of the Taytayans is 51.3 which approximates the Annamites 

 and is between the white and the Negro, although nearer the latter 

 than the former. 



Martin's (18) Malays (p. 260) present a variable average length of the inferior 

 extremity from 76.3 oentimenters to 83.2, and the relative length varies from 51.2 

 to 53.3. This length is estimated by subtracting 4 centimeters from the height of 

 the anterior superior iliac spine, therefore it is comparable neither with the 

 trochanter nor with the pubic height. However, Martin gives a long list of 

 trochanter heights of other peoples from which we extract a few:

The trochanter height makes the Taytayan resemble a European similar 

 to the Ainos and Southern Chinese. 



The lower extremity offers three parts for examination, the upper 

 leg from the trochanter to the knee, the lower leg from the knee to the 

 ankle, and the ankle height from the ankle to the sole, to which may 

 be added another, the leg minus foot equal to the length of the lower 

 leg plus that of the upper leg.

This may be given best in three groups recently measured.

The relative length does not vary greatly in the three groups, but 

 the absolute length is greater for the Taytayans than for the Igorots 

 or for the majority of Martin's Malays.
