OURAN OUTAXG. 
vovagers to Africa and India relate that 
tlie Quran Ouiang is nearly six feet when 
standing or walking erecl. Her shape, he 
observes, resembled most odiers of the mon- 
key kind, and her hands and feet were the 
£ame. She diiFered, in being wiihout a tail, 
and in not having ahv callous skin behind to 
sit on, as most inonkies have : the head was 
rounder, and m^ore human : the forehead high 
and rising ; the nose fiat; and the teeth resem- 
bling those of m.an. The hair from the neck 
inclined upwards round to the forehead ; and 
the ears, v/hich w^ere naked, had much of 
the human make. The face, and naked parts 
of the paws, were of a swarthv fiesh-cclour : 
and the body and limbs were covered with a 
loose, shaggy, reddish brown hair, thick be- 
hind, and thin before; the hair from the 
hand to the elbow^ inclining towards tlie latter. 
A male, examined by Edvs-ards, was found 
to agree, as much as possible, in everv re- 
spedt. He believes them all to be natives of 
Africa, though there are vovagers to India 
who describe something like tliem.
