* Figures in round brackets give the number of skulls measured. Means in square brackets are based 
on possibly non-comparable methods of measurement. f Found from mean lengths only. 
I think it is due to difference in method. Assuming Scott to have measured 
from auricular margin to auricular margin, he has probably measured the least 
(or geodesic) arc, and not through the "apex"*. Our difference in the frontal 
part of the sagittal arc, *S\, is very possibly due to his more careful pressing of 
the tape round the glabella, especially as it is less sensible in the female results. 
The upper face height is a measurement subject to some variation and doubt 
if the alveolar ridge be at all worn; our value of G'H seems reasonable, but 
Scott's to be in excess of any comparative material. His values for the female 
* He measured the entire transverse circumference and divided it into "supra-" and "infra-" 
auricular parts, not further defined.
