Abstract
The material is homogeneous. The skulls are narrow and high, with a long base and large profile angle. The coefficients of racial likeness with the Moriori, Maori, Tibetan B, Eskimos, Ainos, Upper Palaeolithic, British Neolithic, and Anglo-Saxons are all large. Measurements and type contours are given. In a note. MORANT shows that the Easter Islanders resemble the Loyalty Islanders.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
