the tibio-femoral index 92.6, the radio-hunieral index 73.7, and the 

 intermembral index 75.5. Other characters need not be mentioned be- 

 cause they are neither distinctive nor differential in nature. 



Type N of the Igorots has a stature of 150.8, a cephalic index of 

 84.3, and a nasal index of 80.4 which indicates a close relationship to 

 the Primitive of Taytay. They are practically identical with the Prim- 

 itive of the Manila Students and of Malecon Morgue, althovigh relatively 

 fewei' individuals of this species are found at Taytay.

Attempts were made to obtain photographs of one or more Primitive 

 men, but unfortunately the individuals could not be prevailed upon to 

 submit to the ordeal of sitting for their portraits, therefore descriptive 

 characterization and measurements must suffice. However, a few photo- 

 graphs of the Primitive type as found among the Moros, Igorots, and 

 other peoples of the Islands are taken from the Bureau of Science col- 

 lection for purposes of inspection and comparison. These mav be seen 

 in Plates II to VT. 



The head outline from glabella to inion of a Primitive man. Serial 

 No. 110, is given in fig. 1'3 with that of an Iberian for comparison. The 

 depression of the lambda and the elevation of the bregma are very notice- 

 able, and the front bombe is exaggerated. Tire head is short and high. 

 Whether or not this is due to pressure on the occipital pole can not be 

 laiown. It is possible that pressure on the occipital bone after it is 

 thoroughly ossified would produce a depression of the lambda. There 

 is the counterbalancing elevation of the bregma and the frontal region, 

 although the three characteristics may be normal. It is a question 

 whether the Primitive is a species or t3'pe, or whether it is a condition 

 due probably to malformation of the head during infancy. 



The individuals are small, with small round head (A 19), broad, flat, 

 short face and nose, lips full but small, chin small and somewhat reced- 

 ing, forehead narrow but bombe(15), and directed almost vertically from
