Abstract
The present communication is based principally on the results of a series of investigations into the form, dimensions, and characters of the skulls that comprise the unique collection which has been located in the Anatomy Department at the University of Glasgow for a number of years, and of which no account has yet been published. We owe the collection and preservation of this large and valuable series of crania—comprising over 700 specimens—to the zeal of Mr W. K. HUTTON, Lecturer in Anatomy, Queen Margaret College, University of Glasgow, to whom I am much indebted for permission to continue the work begun, but given up, by him. I am very grateful to Professor BRYCE for assistance and much encouragement during the progress of the research.Keywords
