This is another of the dolichocephalic skulls from Site No. 20 and 

 while it does not have the lowest cephalic index it is actually the 

 longest of any of the skulls from the entire region (pi. 139, a). 



Skull No. IJf. — Adult female. Maximum length, 181 mm; maxi- 

 mum breadth, 133 mm; cephalic index, 72.4; glabella-inion length, 

 168 mm; height, 143 mm; nasal length, 51 mm; length of orbit, 36 

 mm ; breadth of orbit, 35 mm ; bigonial breadth, 93 mm ; bicondylar 

 breadth, 119 mm ; length of ramus, 57 mm ; breadth of ramus, 31 mm. 

 The teeth are slightly worn. This skull shows undoubted evidence 

 of burning, but whether or not this represents accidental charring 

 after burial it is impossible to determine. It is distinctly dolicho- 

 cephalic (pi. 140, a) . 



It will be noted that only in a few cases was it possible to positively 

 associate the lower jaws with the skulls to which they belonged. 

 Seven odd mandibles which were suitable for measurement are there- 

 fore reported separately as follows :

Since the skeletal material from Site No. 20 was in entire disarray, 

 the bones being found in the pit in the utmost confusion, it is impos- 

 sible to determine the relationship of the long bones either with each 

 other or with the other bones of the skeleton. Consequently they 

 can be reported only as separate bones. The various long bones 

 which were suitable for measurements gave the following lengths 

 in millimeters when arranged in order of lengths : 



Right femora : 427 ; 431 ; 434 ; 440 ; 441 ; 441 ; 480. 



Left femora: 380; 409; 415; 426; 432; 437; 438; 442; 457. 



Right tibiae: 335; 342; 353; 358; 366; 382. 



Left tibiae : 320 ; 320 ; 335 ; 350 ; 385 ; 386. 



Right fibulae: 349; 369. 



Left fibulae : 330 ; 342 ; 385. 



Right humeri : 273 ; 291 ; 306 ; 309 ; 337. 



Left humeri: 270; 289; 301; 309; 314; 314. 



Right ulnae : 172 ; 225 ; 244 ; 252 ; 280. 



Left ulnae : 225 ; 243 ; 252 ; 253 ; 254 ; 260. 



Right radii : 115 ; 208 ; 223 ; 238 ; 240 ; 243 ; 253 ; 255. 



Left radii : 114 ; 214 ; 238 ; 238 ; 263.
