breadth, 98.5 mm; length of ramus, 42.2 mm; breadth, 26.6 mm; 

 right humerus, 329 mm ; left humerus, 324 mm ; right ulna, 271 mm ; 

 left ulna, 269.66 mm; right radius, 250.5 mm; left radius. 252.33 mm; 

 right femur, 449.5 mm ; left femur, 455.33 mm ; right tibia, 378 mm ; 

 left tibia, 384.66 mm; right fibula, 378 mm. 



A comparison of these average measurements with the averages 

 from the other sites and with averages of similar measurements 

 made from osteoiogical material from other parts of the Mississippi 

 Valley will be be made later in this report. 



Site No. 5 



The bones in the burials on this site were too fragmentary and too 

 badly decomposed to permit of osteometric study. Skeleton No. 2 

 showed a complete right tibia 293 mm long and a left humerus 315 

 mm long. The tibiae and fibulae of this skeleton, however, showed 

 interesting bone lesions which are figured and discussed in a later 

 section of this report dealing with pathological conditions. 



Site No. 10 



Four burials on this site, all from Mound No. 2, yielded material 

 suitable for study. These may be listed as follows : 



Skeleton No. 2. — Adult male. Skull: Maximum length, 170 mm; 

 maximum breadth, 137 mm; cephalic index, 80.6; glabella-inion 

 length, 169 mm; nasal length, 50 mm; length of orbit, 31 mm; 

 breadth of orbit, 39 mm; sagittal-cranial arc, 364 mm; bigonial 

 breadth, 112 mm; bicondylar breadth, 128 mm; length of ramus, 55 

 mm; breadth of ramus, 36 mm. Long bones: Eight humerus, 335 

 mm ; left humerus, 338 mm ; right ulna, 268 mm ; left ulna, 266 mm ; 

 right radius, 249 mm; left radius, 251 mm; right femur, 461 mm; 

 left femur, 456 mm; right tibia, 376 mm; left tibia, 381 mm; left 

 fibula, 355 mm. 



Skeleton No. 3. — Adult male. The skull of this skeleton was in 

 fairly good shape, but the long bones were in bad condition. The 

 available measurements follow. Skull: Maximum length, 171 mm; 

 maximum breadth, 155 mm ; cephalic index, 84 ; glabella-inion length, 

 170 mm; height, 155 mm; nasal length, 53 mm; length of orbit, 36 

 mm; width of orbit, 40 mm; length of occipital foramen, 34 mm; 

 breadth of occipital foramen, 33 mm; circumference, 520 mm; 

 bigonial breadth, 113 mm; bicondylar breadth, 139 mm; length of 

 ramus, 63 mm; breadth of ramus, 33 mm. Long bones: Right 

 humerus, 325 mm; left humerus, 327 mm; left femur, 451 mm. 



Skeleton No. £. — Adult male. Skull : Maximum length, 179 mm ; 

 maximum breadth, 140 mm ; cephalic index, 78 ; glabella-inion length,
