165 mm; height, 155 mm; nasal length, 58 mm; length of orbit, 38 

 mm; breadth of orbit, 39 mm; length of occipital foramen, 35 mm; 

 breadth of occipital foramen, 28 mm ; sagittal-cranial arc, 372 mm ; 

 circumference, 510 mm; bigonial breadth, 94 mm; bicondylar 

 breadth, 110 mm ; length of ramus, 62 mm ; breadth of ramus, 34 mm. 

 All teeth well worn with many marginal cavities. Long bones: 

 Right radius, 255 mm; right femur, 457 mm; left femur, 466 mm; 

 right tibia, 380 mm; left tibia, 380 mm. 



A very interesting feature of this skeleton was that a flint projec- 

 tile point was embedded in the sacrum in such a position as to indi- 

 cate that the individual was bending over with his back to the enemy 

 when the injury was received. This is shown in plate 60, a, in this 

 report. 



Skeleton No. 5. — Only a part of the lower jaw and some of the 

 long bones of this skeleton, representing an adult of undeterminable 

 sex, were suitable for measurements. The ramus was 61 mm long 

 and 33 mm broad. Long bones : Eight humerus, 309 mm ; right ulna, 

 258 mm; left ulna, 261 mm; right radius, 240 mm; left radius, 243 

 mm ; right femur, 423 mm ; left femur, 426 mm ; right tibia, 356 mm ; 

 left tibia, 357 mm. 



The averages for the measurements of four skeletons from Site 

 No. 10 are as follows: Skull: Cephalic index, 80.86; glabella-inion 

 length, 168 mm ; height, 155 mm ; sagittal-cranial arc, 368 mm ; circum- 

 ference, 506.66 mm ; bigonial breadth, 106.33 mm ; bicondylar breadth, 

 125.66 mm; length of ramus, 60.25 mm; breadth of ramus, 34 mm. 

 Long bones : Right humerus, 323 mm ; left humerus, 332.5 mm ; right 

 ulna, 263 mm ; left ulna, 263.5 mm ; right radius, 248 mm ; left radius, 

 247 mm; right femur, 447 mm; left femur, 449.75 mm; right tibia, 

 370.66 mm; left tibia, 372.66 mm; right fibula, 368 mm; left fibula, 

 355 mm. 



Site No. 11 



A single skull from Skeleton No. 1 was the only osteological ma- 

 terial from Site No. 11 from which data could be secured. This was 

 apparently the skull of an adult female with the following measure- 

 ments: Maximum length, 144 mm; glabella-inion length, 130 mm; 

 nasal length, 38 mm ; length of orbit, 32 mm ; breadth of orbit, 34 mm ; 

 sagittal-cranial arc, 325 mm; length of ramus, 37 mm; breadth of 

 ramus, 23 mm. Missing portions of the parietals prevented com- 

 putation of the cephalic index. 



Site No. 15 



This was an excellent site from the standpoint of osteological ma- 

 terial, since of the eight skeletons here reported three of them were in 

 excellent condition, yielding almost complete sets of measurements,
