Although the differences are .small it may be profitable to ftirther analyze 



those that do occur. Head length and breadth and. consequently, the cei^halic index 

 are almost identical in the two groups, but the Tongans have slightly lower, nar- 

 rower faces, lower noses, a higher average nasal index and lower average cephalo- 



facial indices. There is also noticeable a slightly greater tendency to have wavy or 



curly hair. Beards are slightly heavier and body hair more plentiful. There is 



more conjuncti\-al pigment in the Tongans and a higher fre(|uenc}- of the epicanthic 

 eye fold. There are fewer highly arched nasal bridges.
