XIV r-26 



These five cranial fragments consist of the greater part of the vault, the 

 occipital, frontal and right temporal bones and the two superior maxillse with a 

 portion of the sphenoid and the vomer. 



All the teeth had erupted except the third molars which are still well hidden 

 within their alveoli. This individual must therefore have been between 12 and 

 18 years of age. 



XIV F-2r 



The greater part of a cranial vault. The coronal, sagittal and lambdoidal 

 sutures are still very distinct upon the exterior of the calvaria, but are very 

 feebly shown on the interior. This individual must have been approaching 

 middle age.
