242 Variation and Correlation of the Human Skull 
cephaly and protuberance of occiput are, if anything, more marked in the 
Moorfields than in the Whitechapel crania*. The great average length, the 
comparative narrowness and the resulting degree of dolichocephaly, are of course 
not the only distinguishing marks of the Whitechapel crania, but they are those 
which strike the most casual observer. They lead us at once to ask : Where 
can we find anything which in the least corresponds to these English characters ? 
The answer appears to be only in the Long Barrow crania of this and other

* Special prominence will be given to these features in the plates to the memoir on the Moorfields 
crania.

and hence is not properly comparable with our Oj.

§ With reference to these indexes, Sir William Turner writes, p. G03 : " Orbital Inde.v... .My obser- 
" vations on the orbital index in the skulls of numerous races have satisfied me that it presents a great 
" range of variation in the same race, and that it possesses only a secondary value as a race character. 
" Nasal Index. The relation between the height of the nose, measured from the uasion to the lower 
" border of the apertura pyriformis, and the greatest width of that aperture, constitutes one of the most 
"important anthropological characters of the face." 
It will be observed, however, that the variability, as measured by the coefficient of variation, of the 
nasal index is much greater, both in males and females, than that of the orbital index, and this is true 
of the Whitechapel and Naqada series as well as of the Scottish.
