THE BENGUET IGOROTS. 



429 



The absolute and relative length of the extremities of the Igorots may 

 be stated in contrast with similar measurements of other people. 



The absolute length of the upper extremity of the Igorots is less than that of 

 any other Eastern Asiatic people except the Senoi. The Northern Chinese have 

 the greatest and the Japanese an intermediate length, or nearer the length of 

 the Igorot arm. 



Tlie relative length of the upper extremity of the Igorots is less than that of 

 the majority of the associated people. However, the Japanese and the Senoi 

 have this relation shorter; the former the shortest of all, and the Veddahs and 

 Ainos the longest, with the Europeans intermediate. The Igorots are midway 

 between the Europeans and the Japanese. 



The absolute length of the lower extremity of the Igorots is less than that 

 of any other except the Japanese and Cochin Chinese, who have this dimension 

 slightly less than the Igorots. Tlie Japanese have the shortest and the negroes 

 the longest legs of all people, while the Europeans are intermediate. The Aino 

 and the Igorot are almost identical in leg length, and are midway between the 

 Japanese and the European. 



Martin's observations lead him to conclude that relative leg length and 

 absolute leg length follow each other closely, in which I agree with him. The 

 relative leg length of the Igorot is slightly nearer the European standard, but 

 otherwise corresponds to the absolute leg length. 



SHOULDER-HIP-PELVIS. 



The shoulder width (acromian), and the width of the hips (iliac) 

 may be contrasted and compared with the height, to determine relation-
