Abstract
Individual measurements, means, and type contours are given. The series is not more variable than in other Egyptian dynasties. Judged by the coefficient of racial likeness it is most like the 4th and 5th dynasty Egyptians from Deshasheh and Medurn and the modern Cretans. It has a higher cephalic index, a greater height, and a higher height-length index than any other early Egyptian type. These divergences are in the direction of the modern Cretan type.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
