XIV F-21 



The much bleached and weathered skull of an adult female about middle 

 life. The coronal and sagittal sutures are considerably obliterated, but the 

 lambdoid and squamous are still very distinct. There is some moss growth in 

 the orbital and nasal apertures.

 teeth had probably not yet erupted. The occipito-sphenoidal synchondrosis 

 had still been in existence. The skull is slightly asymmetrical and is remark- 

 ably small.
