Column 1 expresses in degrees the angle indicating the relation of the 

 ear to the eyebrow. This angle is formed by a line parallel to the base of 

 the brain with another line from the earhole to the superorbital ridge. 



Column 2 shows the long diameter of the head, the measurement beino- 

 taken from immediately above the top of the nose to the small bony projec- 

 tion at the back part of the head. 



Column 5 indicates the height of head measured from the earhole to 

 about the centre of crown. 



Column 6 gives the breadth from immediately above the external open- 

 ing of the ear. 



Column 7, the breadth from centre of parietal bones. 



Column 8, the breadth immediately above the temples. 



Column 9, the interzygomatic or facial breadth. 



In the male the greatest breadth of head is the parietal. The female 

 head is broadest just over the ear. As might be expected, there is no great 

 breadth of forehead over the temples in either sex.
