of the Mediterranean extended to Wales and to Moravia. 
When the Brunn skull — the larger of the two described 
by Professor Makowsky^ — is placed in a standard frame 
(fig. 28) we are impressed by its dimensions. The 
maximum length is 206 mm., its width, 144 mm. ; the 
height of the vault above the ear-holes, 125 mm.; the 
width is 69 per cent, of the length ; the capacity, 
estimated by the Lee-Pearson formula, a little over 
1600 c.c. It is a man's skull, showing strong and 
rugged characters in the forehead and in the area 
for attachment to the neck. The BrUnn type is a 
variant of the Cromagnon — the man was apparently a

surprised to find in the museum of the Societe Jersiaise 
a skull which was a replica of the BrQnn example. All that 
is known of the Jersey specimen is that it was brought 
from South America. As is so often the case with the 
Aurignacian skulls, the Jersey skull is of a brownish- 
red colour, as if it had been embedded for a long time 
in soil rich in iron. 
Another Aurignacian skull, that found by Dr Hauser 
at Combe Capelle in 1907, in the region of the 
Dordogne, France, will be described at a later period, 
when we pass to the consideration of the Neanderthal 
race. In the meantime, we simply note that when
