404 A Study of the Nasal Bridge in the Anthropoid Apes 
the Chimpanzee, although all the races dealt with are nearer to the Gorilla than 
either of the two apes. The following table gives the racial order for the simotic 
and two mesodacryal indices :

Now if we compare the results given in this table we see that with one 
exception, that of the Borneo crania, the simotic index is greater in the males than 
in the females ; but there is a greater agreement between the sexes — the Hindoos, 
English and Egyptians excepted — in the mesodacryal indices. For the mesodacryal 
index, a, there are 7 cases (judging from Table VIII, p. 403) in which the female is 
greater, as against 7 in which the male is greater; for the mesodacryal index /3, 
there are also 7 cases for the male and 7 for the female with greater value, and

t The position of the "Nubians" confirms the view that the men were more Egyptian and the 
women almost negroes.
