Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the field of comparing skulls in a bid to find out more about human races. With a meticulous approach, the author presents an analysis of measurements taken from a large number of skulls, providing insights into their capacity and variation. The book discusses different methods used for measuring skulls and their relative merits, addresses topics such as the position of the foramen magnum, and presents data on cranial measurements from various populations, including the rare Tsuktshi people and the inhabitants of the Hawaiian island of Kauai. The author also examines the phenomenon of synostotic crania, a condition where certain sutures in the skull prematurely close, which results in an elongated head shape. This book offers a comprehensive examination of the comparative study of skulls, revealing the diversity of human forms and providing valuable information for anthropologists and anyone interested in human evolution and variation.
