 PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. 
 
 'I'm; collection of anthropological specimens (that is to say. 
 specimens illustrating the physical structure of the body of Man 
 and his position in the Animal Kingdom, as distinct from his works) 
 is at present in its infancy, and requires an almost indefinite increase 
 in order to make it anything like representative. Although skeletons 
 and skulls of the races of Mankind have for many years formed a 
 portion of the zoological collection, the anthropological series in its 
 present form is due to the initiation of the late Sir W. H. Flower, 
 by whom special interest was taken in this section of the Museum. 
 
 Unfortunately, of late years the anthropological series has not 
 increased so rapidly as is desirable. It may be hoped that the 
 publication of this Guide-Book will stimulate public interest, and 
 thus lead to the growth of the collection. 
 
 The attention of those who may have the opportunity of 
 photographing any of the native races of mankind may be directed 
 to the importance of taking such photographs from two aspects, — 
 full-face and in profile — after the manner of most of the illustrations 
 in this Guide-Book. Et is only when taken fmm these two aspects 
 that photographs are capable of accurate comparison with one 
 another, and it is therefore these alone that are of any value to 
 the anthropologist. 
 
 The present Guide-Book is the work of Mr. R. Lydekker, to 
 whom has been entrusted the formation and arrangement of the 
 anthropological series in its present form.

PEEFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION'. 
 
 The collection of specimens illustrating the Races of Mankind was 
 at first arranged on the system adopted by Sir William Flower 
 in his anthropological works ; but certain modifications — especially 
 in regard to the racial position of Australians and Malays — have 
 been subsequently introduced. 
 
 In the present edition of this Guide-Book, which has been 
 thoroughly revised, the author—Mr. R. Lydekker — is indebted for 
 many suggestions to Professor A. C. Haddon, F.R.S., of Cambridge, 
 to Mr. T. A. Joyce, of the Department of British and Medieval 
 Antiquities and Ethnography at the British Museum, Bloornsbury, 
 and likewise to the Curator of the Department of Anthropology in 
 the U.S. National Museum at Washington. 
 
 The Trustees are indebted to Dr. II. 0. Forbes, late Director of 
 the Museum at Liverpool, for the greater number of the life-size 
 photographs of the heads of various races exhibited in the gallery. 
 These photographs were specially prepared for the collection under 
 the supervision of Dr. Forbes, by whom they were presented.

GUIDE TO THE HACKS or MANKIND. 
 
 So far as his bodily structure is concerned, Man 
 Mankind, amV] .. 8Q Blightly from fche higlier Apes thai he is 
 
 may classed in bhe same order — the Primates, in which lie 
 Hominidae. constifcufcea fcne family ffominidm. All the differed 
 
 existing races of Mankind are commonly regarded as belonging to a 
 
 - _«' species, of which the Caucasians, as being those to which the 
 name Homo sapiens, of Linnaeus, applies in the first instance, may 
 be regarded as the type. Numerous classifications of bhese races 
 have been proposed : hut it seems best to recognise three distincl 
 types into which primitive Man (wherever he may first have made 
 his appearance mi the glohe) diverged. These three groups, which 
 are best defined by the characters of the hair, are respectively typified 
 by(l) the Caucasian, or White Races of Europe; (•_') the Mongolian, 
 or Yellow Racs of Asia ; and (:■'») the Xegro, or Black Races of 
 Africa. Around these three types, or somewhere between them, may 
 be ranged all existing individuals of the species. Some races appear, 
 however, to be the result of direct crosses between well-established 
 extreme forms : while others may have been derived from the 
 primitive stock before its triple division. All the groups have so 
 much in common thai it is difficull to find characters by which they 
 can be exactly distinguished. 
 
 Tin* series of specimens exhibited is intended to illustrate Man 
 solely from the zoological point of view that is to say. from his 
 bodily structure and his geographical distribution. This constitutes 
 the science of Physical Anthropology ; whereas the study of the 
 manners and customs of the different races, their languages, dress, 
 weapon-, implements, etc., constitutes Ethnography. In the maps 
 showing the approximate distribution of bhe groups and subgroups, 
 no account is taken of modern migrations, such as bhe introduction 
 of African Negroes into the Wesl Indies and America, or bhe 
 replacement of the native races in many parts of the -lobe by 
 Europeans. 
 
 Before proceeding to review bhe specimens illustrating the 
 aforesaid three main groups or branches and their subdivisions; a 
 few words may be devoted bo the structural features by which Man 
 is distinguished from other Mammals, some of which are indicated 
 
10 
 
 Guide to the Races of Mankind. 
 
 in ;i special case ;it the western end of that portion of the Upper 
 Mammal Gallery at present open to the public. 
 
 The skeletOD of .Man differs 'from that of ordinary Mammals 
 mainly in relation to the upright position of the body, and the 
 adaptation of the fore-limbs, or arms, to net as organs of touch and 
 for grasping ; while at the same time the hind-limbs are sufficiently 
 developed to be capable, by themselves, of supporting and moving the 
 whole weight of the body. The direction of the hind-limbs, or legs, 
 is situated in a straight line with the axis of the spine, or vertebral 
 column, instead of at right angles to it, as in ordinary quadrupedal 
 Mammals ; the thumb is so attached to the wrist-bones as to be com- 
 pletely opposable to the four fingers ; while the great toe is fixed 
 parallel to the other toes, so that the foot is quite flat beneath, with

 little power of grasping, but forming a base on which the body is 
 1 ialanced. The tail is only represented by the coccyx, an immovable bone 
 composed of from three to five consolidated joints or vertebra?. The 
 three main curves of the vertebral column are also distinctive. 
 
 The human skull (fig. 1) differs from that of the other 
 Mammals in the great relative size of the brain-case, and the 
 reduction of the bones of the face ; this being related to the 
 high development of the brain, the disuse of the jaws and teeth as 
 weapons, ami the perfection of binocular vision. This indicates that 
 the races of Mankind with prominent jaws and small brain-cases are 
 of a lower type than those in which the jaws are more reduced in 
 size and the brain-case is larger. Australians and Tasmanians have, 
 for example, a comparatively small brain-cavity, thick skull-bones, 
 
Family Hominidce. I I 
 
 receding forehead, overhanging brows, flat aose-bones, long, 1"\\ eye- 
 Bockets, very broad and low nose-opening, forwardly projecting jaws 
 but receding chin, and large teeth. In each of these respects they 
 strongly contrast with Europeans. 
 
 The position of the foramen magnum, or aperture for the passage 
 of the spinal cord, is very different to that of other Mammals ; its 
 front margin (basion) being nearly in the middle of the lower surface. 
 This is intimately connected with the erect posture of Man. 
 
 I id ike Apes, the grinding surfaces of the teeth are nearly in one 
 plane, and the length of the palate slightly exceeds the breadth, which 
 is greatest behind. The teeth, which are relatively small, form a 
 regular curve, the molars diminishing in size from before backwards. 
 
 The stylohyal, which is a separate bone in all Apes except the 
 Orang-utan, is coossified with the skull in Man. 
 
 Great differences occur in the shape of the skull in the various 
 races. In the Kai-colo of Fiji, for instance, the skull is extra- 
 ordinarily long and narrow (dolichocephalic type), a specimen 
 exhibited in the case illustrating the differences between Man and 
 Apes having a maximum length of 180 millimetres with a width of 
 124 mm. In certain other races, such as the Negritos, and still 
 more in some Caucasians, it is equally remarkable for its shortness 
 and breadth {Jbrachycephalic type) ; the skull of a Florentine woman 
 exhibited in the aforesaid case having a longitudinal diameter 
 of L58 and a transverse diameter of 140 mm. 
 
 The methods of measuring human skulls are likewise displayed 
 in the same case. On the adjacent screens and partitions are 
 diagrams, photographs, and sketches illustrating hand and finger 
 prims, and identification by means of the latter. 
 
 In Man and the Man-like Apes the caecum, or blind sac at the 
 junction of the small with the large intestine, is furnished with a 
 slender vermiform [worm-like] appendix. This appendage, which 
 appears to be quite useless, is a vestige of the large, coiled, functional 
 caecum found in many of the lower Mammals. 
 
 The series exhibited commences on the left side of the Upper 
 
 Mammal Gallery with the Caucasians, which are followed by tie 
 
 Mongolians, and these again by the Negroes. 
 
 . In its highest and most typical development the 
 
 __-.., ' Caucasian branch, which includes all the inhabitants 
 or WnitG 
 
 of Western Europe, displays a refined cast of features, 
 
 with thin lips, and the oose narrow and high at the 
 
 bridge. The hair, which is usually well developed both on the 
 
I •_■ Guide to the Races of Mankind. 
 
 Bcalp and face is generally wavy, and never so long or so cylindrical 
 as in the Mongol group, or so shorl and so elliptical in section as 
 in Negroes. The skull (fig. L), in the higher representatives of this 
 branch, is either of medium length or rather short, the teeth are 
 relatively small, and the projection of the jaws and prominence of 
 the cheek-bones slightly marked. 
 
 This branch includes two types — namely, the Blonde Caucasians, 
 or Xanthochroi, and the Dark Caucasians, or Melanochroi — which 
 in Europe are now intimately blended. The first is characterised by 
 the fair complexion, eyes, and hair, and is chiefly found in Northern 
 Europe, especially Scandinavia. Scotland, and North Germany. 
 Although much mixed with the second type, the Blonde Caucasians 
 likewise extend into Afghanistan, and perhaps North Africa. Their 
 intercrossing with Mongols appears to have given rise to the Finns 
 and Laplanders, as also to some of the tribes of Northern Siberia. 
 
 In the Dark Caucasians the eyes and hair are dark, but the skin 
 may vary between white and black. The group includes most of the 
 inhabitants of Southern Europe, Northern Africa, and South-western 
 Asia ; the chief language-groups being the Aryan, Semitic, and 
 Bamitic. It also comprises the Dravidians of India, the Veddas of 
 Ceylon, probably the Ainus of Japan, and the Maoutzi of China, and 
 perhaps the natives of Australia and a large part of Polynesia, as 
 well as the Maori of New Zealand. 
 
 In North-eastern Africa numerous cross-races have originated 
 between this type and Negroes. 
 
 In order to exhibit the Caucasian characteristics in their full 
 development, so far as the bony framework is concerned, the skeletons 
 of a European male and female are mounted in the first case on 
 the left side of the gallery. Alongside is placed the skull of a 
 Papuan from Torres Strait, for the purpose of showing the 
 occasional persistence in that race of a frontal suture ; that is to say, 
 of a line of division between the two elements of which the single 
 frontal bone of Man is really composed. In Apes and Monkeys the 
 two elements are fused into a single bone, as in Man ; but in the 
 lower Mammals, such as Dogs, they remain separate throughout life. 
 
 On the side of the same case are shown a number of skulls 
 of various European races, both ancient and modern, including 
 skulls of Celts, Saxons, Ancient Britons, Ancient Etruscans, and 
 Ancient Cypriotes; still earlier skulls are represented by plaster 
 casts, and are provisionally classed as Caucasian. 
 
 Lapps. Swedes, and Norwegians are represented by a series of 
 photographs, while sknlls of Laplanders and Tatars are also shown. 
 
Aryan-Speaking Races. 1:1 
 
 A restored model "I the bust of the Fossil Man found at 
 Cromagnon, in Prance, is shown, ami with it are placed for com- 
 parison bnats of three other extinct types the Neanderthal 
 Man, found near Diisseldorf ; the Piltdown Man. from Sussex 
 {Eoanthropus) ; and the Javan Pithecanthropus . ] 
 
 Such Dark Caucasians as come under the denomination 
 
 y " neither of Semites or Ilamites are commonly termed 
 
 P e s Aryans, a designation which refer- solely to com- 
 
 munity of language-type. As the 1 Monde Caucasians, or 
 
 Xanthochroi, are also Aryan-speaking people, the two groups must 
 
 be considered together. 
 
 The Aryan-speaking races are divisible into an Asiatic and a 
 European group. To the former belong the Bramins of India, 
 and the races who now speak Bengali, Nepali, Kashmiri, Hindi, 
 and Urdu — the language of the Mogul camps. Punjabi, Sindi, 
 and Mahratha are also languages belonging to this group, which 
 likewise includes the Siaposh of Kafiristan, and the Gipsy tribes 
 who wandered from India into Europe between the 11th and 
 1 ith centuries. The second branch of Asiatic Aryan-speaking 
 tribes includes the people who spoke Zend, the ancient sacred 
 language of Persia, from whom, mixed with Semitic elements, are 
 derived the modern Persians. To this group may also be affiliated 
 the Kurds of South-western Asia, as well as the Afghans and the 
 Baluchis, together with certain other Central Asian races and a few 
 of the tribes inhabiting the Caucasus. 
 
 The European Aryan-speaking races may be separated Into 
 North and South Europeans. The former includes the Letto- 
 Sclavonic and Germanic branches; of which the Lett- comprise 
 the true Letts, the Lithuanians, and the Prussians, while the 
 Russians are Hast Sclavonic; the South Sclavonic being repre- 
 sented by the inhabitants of Croatia, Serbia.. Bosnia, and Herze- 
 govina. The Germanic branch diverged at an early date into 
 (iotiis, Scandinavians, and Teutons. The Southern Europeans are 
 more intricately subdivided, the firsl to sever themselves were 
 apparently the Ancient Greeks; a second branch being formed by 
 the Albanians, and a third by the Italians. 
 
 On the east, or entrance, side of the second duse are exhibited 
 skulls and photographs of a uumber of Asiatic Aryan-speaking races, 
 
 1 See "(iuide to the Fossil Remains of Man." 
 
I I Guide to the Races of Mankind. 
 
 as well as of other Asiatic Caucasians, to some of which reference is 
 made later. 
 
 Eere may be mentioned the Berbers, who are of a distinctly 
 European type, and may be derived from the ancient dolmen 
 or mound builders. In addition to the Guanches of the Canaries, 
 the Berbers include the nationalities formerly known as Libyans, 
 Moors, Nuniidians, and Gastulians : the Kabyles of Algeria are 
 pure Berbers, hut in many parts of North Africa the group is 
 much mingled with a Semitic strain. 
 
 The Semitic section of the Dark Caucasians populates 
 Semitic ^y esteru As j a an j part f Eastern Africa. Its members 
 uroup. are mQre b ear( j e( j t h an ^e Hamites, and frequently 
 possess expressive features, with thin lips, high and often aquiline 
 noses, and well-marked eyebrows ; the colour of the skin varying 
 from an ordinary swarthy to a deep brown. Among Jews the skull 
 frequently tends to the short type, thereby apparently indicating 
 a Hittite admixture ; but it is always proportionately longer in 
 Arabs, and still more so in Abyssinians. In addition to the 
 races mentioned, this group includes the Ancient Assyrians and 
 Babylonians, as well as the Semitic Chakheans. 
 
 . . The Hamitic group of Dark Caucasians occupies 
 Ham l much of North Africa as far as the Eastern Sudan, and 
 
 P* some of the coast-districts of Eastern Africa northward 
 of the equator. It may be divided into two branches — (i) the 
 Ancient Egyptians, and (ii) the East African. The Ancient 
 Egyptians are still represented by the Fellahin of the Nile Valley, 
 but more purely by the Coptic Christians. Of the East African 
 Hamites the inhabitants of the Nubian Nile districts most nearly 
 resemble the Ancient Egyptians ; their purest representatives being 
 the Bisharin, the Hadendoa, and some of the Beni Amer. £The 
 Bahima of Uganda are likewise of Hamitic descent. Here also are 
 placed the Gallas, who live partly in Abyssinia and partly in the 
 interior of East Africa. Although the pure Gallas are lighter, some 
 of these tribes are as dark as Negroes, having curly hair and 
 abundant beards. Somalis are now generally considered to be near 
 akin to Gallas, and thus nearly pure Hamites. They have long thin 
 faces, bearded chins, and generally frizzly hair. 
 
 Photographs of Bisharin (Hamitic) and other Arabs are exhibited 
 in the front of case No. 2. 
 
 A large number of skulls of Ancient Egyptians, the gift of 
 Professor Flinders Petrie, is exhibited : the type of countenance

 characteristic of the former inhabitants of the Nile Valley being 
 illustrated bya cast of a contemporary miniature Imst. A photograph 
 of a modern Egyptian and another of a Copt are likewise shown; 
 and th<i-e are also several photographs of Sudanis and Somalis, some 
 of the physiognomies in which approximate to the European type, 
 while others are distinctly Negro-like, showing thick lips, broad 
 • 3, and frizzled hair. 
 
 .... . . The Nilgiri Hills and adjacent districts of Southern 
 
 Nil o 'iri t 
 
 _ .f India, such as the Wvnad, arc the home of a number 
 
 of peculiar tribes, uow for the most part of Dravidian, 
 
 that is to say, non-Aryan, speech. Among these are the Todas, 
 
 nadily distinguished by their splendid physique, regular Caucasian 
 
 features, black wavy hail', full-flowing heard, aquiline nose, light 
 
 brown complexion, ami tall stature, averaging 5 ft. '.> in. in the 
 
 men. Photographs of both male and female Todas are shown in 
 
 <'a<e '1. The Kotas, who are restricted to seven villages, one of 
 
 which is in the Wynad, are much less hairy than the Todas, and 
 
 lack the strong development of the brow-ridges characteristic of the 
 
 skulls of the latter. Their black wavy hair is worn parted in the 
 
 middle, and tied in a bunch behind. 
 
 The Badagas are believed to be descendants from Kanarese 
 Hindus from .Mysore, to whom they are related by language. They 
 are below the middle height, and of slender build, with narrow chest 
 and shoulders. In colour, they are lighter than other hill-tribes, the 
 pallor being especially noticeable in the women. 
 
 The three foregoing tribes are easy to distinguish from one 
 another, but much difficulty is experienced in tin- cave of the Irula>. 
 Knrumbas, ami Kurubas. [rulas, however, have a very dark skin, 
 Blight beard, bushy eyebrows, and little hair on the body and limbs ; 
 that of the head being cut short in front and tied in a knot behind. 
 The ears project, and the cheek-bones are prominent and the lips thin. 
 
 The Knrumbas of the eastern slopes of the Xilgiris appear to lie 
 a lower type than the Kuritbas of the Mysore plateau, from whom 
 they are distinguished by their inferior Mature, broader noses, and 
 darker skin. They have bleared eyes, a rather wide mouth, often 
 projecting beeth, and are remarkable for their leanness, their thin 
 legs, and relatively long arms. 
 
 Xel another tribe are the Paniyans of Malabar, characterised by 
 their dark skin, short stature, broad noses, and curly hair, which i- 
 neither parted nor tied. 
 
 The Kadirs, of the Anamalai Hills and the range extending 
 
I r> Guide to the Races of Mankind. 
 
 bhence into Travancore, form a tribe of low organisation allied to the 
 numerous Dravidian-speaking races of the Nilgiris. They are 
 especially characterised by their comparatively short stature, the 
 extremely dark colour of the skin, the breadth and flatness of the 
 Qose, ami the somewhat thickened and protruding lips. In spite of 
 i heir Negro-like teal hits, Kadirs preserve the Caucasian type in their 
 wavy (as distinct from frizzly) hair, and the non-projection of the 
 jaws. They are easily recognised by the custom of chipping the 
 front teeth, which prevails in both sexes. 
 
 The Dravidiau group includes the Teliugas, or 
 Dravidians. Telugllgj of the Northern Circars ; the Tamils of 
 
 the Camatic, South Travancore, and Northern Ceylon ; the Kanarese 
 of Mysore, the south of Bombay, and Kanara ; the Malayalim from 
 the Malabar Coast south of Kanara; the Kodagu of Kurg ; the 
 Ordons and Rajmahalis of Chutia Nagpur ; and the Gonds of 
 Gondwana. Their most noticeable feature is the long, crimped or 
 wavy black hair. Although preceding the Aryan-speaking Hindus, 
 Dravidians were far from being the earliest inhabitants of the 
 Deccan, who were probably aberrant Negritos. 
 
 _ , , The Yeddas of Ceylon (fig. 2 ), now very few in number, 
 
 Vpddcis 
 
 form one of the most primitive types of the Caucasian 
 
 group in Asia, being apparently a pre-Dravidian stock of a decidedly 
 
 lower type than any existing Dravidians. In stature they are very 
 
 small, the height of the men averaging only 5 feet 2 inches, and that 
 
 of the women 4 feet 10 inches. The body is strongly built, with 
 
 relatively long arms and legs, and the feet notable for their unusual 
 
 flatness. The colour of the skin is dark brown, although among the 
 
 men its shade varies considerably on different parts of the body. In 
 
 length the hair shows considerable individual variation, and may 
 
 be either nearly straight or waved ; a very characteristic feature is 
 
 i he development of the beard of the men into a chin-tuft. The 
 
 skull is small and long. 
 
 Several photographs of Yeddas are exhibited in Cases 2 and 2*, 
 
 the originals of which were taken by Drs. P. and F. Sarasin. 
 
 The Toalas of Celebes are an ancient but mixed tribe 
 apparently nearly allied to the Yeddas of Ceylon. 
 Their characteristics, coupled with their geographical position, serve 
 to support the view that the aborigines of Australia, in place of 
 belonging to the Negro stock, are really descendants from a primitive 
 Caucasian group allied to both Yeddas and Toalas. 
 
~ (5 
 
Sakais. 1 7 
 
 Sikais ^ , ^° ^kais of the Malay Peninsula form another 
 
 type of low Caucasians allied to Veddas and 
 Australians. From their Negrito neighbours the Semangs thej 
 distinguished by the colour of the skin, which is often as yellow as 
 in an Indonesian (Malay), or even as light as in a Chinaman ; while 
 the hair, although always black, is in some cases wavy, ami in others 
 Btraight. Wnen frizzly, the presence of Semang blood is indicated. 
 The face is lighter-coloured than the body ; and the lips are less 
 thick and the jaws less protruding than in Semangs. In Perak, 
 Sakais. who are hill men. inhabit the right bank of the Perak River, 
 while the plains-dwelling and nomad Semangs are found on the left 
 bank. The photograph of a Sakai is exhibited in Case :.'. 
 
 Ainus TIu ' Ainns " or 1[airv Peo P le > Urlv tn e primitive in- 
 
 habitants of Japan, and appear formerly to have 
 peopled all the islands, although they now form a substratum of the 
 population only in the island of Hokkaido (Yezo). In general 
 physiognomy Ainus appear not very unlike Japanese, although they 
 differ from these and other Mongolian races by their luxuriant 
 beards, the bushy and wavy hair on the scalp, and the general 
 hairiness of other parts of the body. This hairiness separates them 
 from all other Asiatic races, and it is considered that their affinities 
 are with tin- Dark Caucasians. Several photographs of Ainu men 
 and women, together with a single skull, are shown on the west side 
 of Case •_'. while the photograph of an unusually hairy individual 
 is exhibited in Case 1. 
 
 Native I^ky in complexion, with the features and the 
 
 Australians ^''^ton— but not the skull— approximating to the 
 Negro type, although their hair is not frizzly, the 
 native inhabitants of Australia— the "Black Fellows" of the 
 Colonists— were long a puzzle to anthropologists. At one time they 
 were regarded as a cross-bred race, produced by the fusion of a 
 frizzly-haired Melanesian stock with one of the primitive Caucasian 
 races. They are, perhaps, better regarded as low-grade Caucasians, 
 akin to the Veddas of Ceylon, the Toalas of Celebes, and the Ainus 
 of Japan; such Negro-like characters as they possess being due, it may 
 be. in some degree to secondary variation. As a race. Australians 
 (fig. 3) are characterised by their strikin-r physical uniformity, both 
 externally and in the skull; which is of itself a strong proof of 
 their being a pure-bird type, for had they been of mixed origin Mich 
 uniformity in physical characteristics could not possibly have existed. 
 
 The broad and squal nose, with the bridge low and the nostrils

 open, is a Negro feature; but these characters are exaggerated 
 owing to the use of a nose-peg. The prominence of the jaws is 
 also Negro-like, although the size of the jaws and teeth may be a 
 secondary character due to hard food. The deep notch above the 
 bridge of the nose and the sunken eyes, which form the most 
 striking characteristics of Australians, may likewise be secondary 
 adaptations due to the glare of the sandy plains on which they 
 dwell. Unlike Negroes, Australians are extremely hairy — thereby 
 resembling Ainus; the hair on the head being waved and long, the 
 beard full, and the body in some instances carrying so much hair 
 that the covering resembles a thin fur. The shape of the head also 
 differs from that in the Negro, the forehead being high and the 
 -cheek-bones prominent. Indeed, the profile of the head may 
 approach the European type. As shown by a skull exhibited in the 
 .Man and Ape Case, the palate in Australians is much longer and 
 narrower than in the true Caucasian type, being nearly as broad in front 
 as behind. The teeth are larger and form a less regular curve, the 
 < inter pair of incisors being nearly in the line of the molars, of which 
 the last, or " wisdom tooth," is only a little smaller than the second. 
 Similar dental characters are exhibited in the lower jaw, of which a 
 specimen, with the right outer incisor crowded out of the row, is 
 shown above the skull. The idea that Australians are the lowest of 
 mankind is erroneous ; for in mental characters these people 'seem 
 to approximate in many respects much more to the Caucasian than 
 to the Negro standard. 
 
 A large series of photographs of natives from various parts of 
 Australia, together with six busts' of male and female inhabitants 
 of Victoria, and a number of skulls, are exhibited on the west side 
 of Case 2. The deep incision at the root of the nose is displayed 
 equally well in the busts, the photographs, and the skulls. 
 
 From Neanderthal, near Diisseldorf, as well as from 
 Extinct several other Continental localities, such as Spy 
 
 European anc i Krapina, have been obtained skulls or frag- 
 
 Races. 1 ments of skulls indicating very low types of the 
 
 human species ; so low, indeed, that some authorities regard them 
 as representing a distinct species, the so-called Homo primigenius. 
 In the opinion of Professor W. J. Sollas, these skulls (casts of some 
 of which are exhibited in Case 1 and in the case showing the 
 differences between Man and Apes) do not display any features 
 which justify our regarding Neanderthal Man as a separate species.

 Od the other hand, so far as the capacity of his brain-chamber is 
 concerned, be appears bo have been near akin to the Australian 
 natives of the present day. According to Professor Sollas, the 
 Neanderthal race, one of the most remote in time of which we 
 
 have any knowledge, and the Australian, the most remote fr us 
 
 in space, probably represenl divergent branches of the same original 
 stock. In that most important of all characters, cranial capacity, 
 the two races are almosl identical, [f trustworthy, this opinion is 
 of great interest in connection with the view that native Australians 
 are low-grade members of the Caucasian stock, instead of being, 
 as believed by sir W. II. Flower, half-bred Papuans. That tie- 
 Australian type should be represented in Europe during Prehistoric 
 times is exactly what mighl have been expected ; and the Veddas 
 of Ceylon and the Toalas of Celebes apparently mark the line of 
 march of the ancestral Australians from west to east. The heavy 
 brow-ridges and the deep inset at the root of the nose are features 
 in which the Neanderthal race resembles the Australian. On the 
 other hand, the face of the Neanderthal race appears to have been 
 of a distinct type, the large, round, widely-open eye-sockets, the 
 projecting, broad nose, the retreating cheek-bones, the absence of 
 any depression beneath the orbits, the long face, and the low 
 degree of jaw-projection distinguishing it in the clearest manner 
 from the modern Australian type. A restored model of the bust of 
 Neanderthal Man is exhibited in Case 1. 
 
 Another primitive type of Man is the so-called Homo heidelberg- 
 msis, known from a lower jaw from the Lower Pleistocene of 
 Eeidelberg, of which a cast is exhibited in the Man and Ape Case. 
 The extraordinary large size of this jaw, together with its massive 
 character and the big teeth, cannot fail to strike the visitor. Still 
 more primitive is the Piltdown Man. Eoanthropus, from the Pliocene 
 of Sussex. 
 p . . The Brown Polynesians, commonly known as 
 
 ^ ' Kanakas (fig. I i. are met with in their greatest 
 
 purity in the Eastern Polynesian Islands ; the Polynesians of Tonga 
 having a strong infusion of Melanesian blood, while those of Samoa 
 have a Blighter strain of the same. The classification of the Oceanic 
 races is a difficult matter, but the following seems the best scheme : 
 
 Blai k. Beown. 
 
 Papuasian. Polynesian. 
 
 Papuan. Melanesian. Polynesian. Micronesian. 
 
 C _' 
 
20 Guide to the Races of Mankind. 
 
 Papuans inhabit New Guinea (with the exception of the south- 
 eastern end, where they are replaced by Melanesians) and the islands 
 of Torres Strait. Micronesians are Polynesians with a slight 
 admixture of Mongol Mood. Polynesians, who have more hah' on 
 the body and chin than Mongols, range as far as Hawaii on the 
 north and Easter Island on the extreme cast. They probably came 
 originally from Northern India, and gradually travelled by way of 
 Java to the Pacific. On this view they are of Caucasian origin; 
 and ii is probable that Indonesians have a slight infusion of 
 Polynesian blood rather than the reverse. 
 
 A series of photographs of Polynesians, including Samoans, 
 Tonga Islanders, natives of the Caroline and Kingsmill groups, and 
 Eawaiians, is exhibited. Specimens of the hair are also shown, 
 to display the absence of a frizzly character, and a few skulls 
 are likewise exhibited. The Tonga Islanders are represented, in 
 addition, by two busts ; all these specimens being placed on the 
 east side of Case 3. 
 
 Although the Maoris of New Zealand form merely 
 Maoris 
 
 a tribe of Polynesians, their peculiarities are so great 
 
 that they may receive separate mention. Their distinctive charac- 
 teristics have been regarded as due to a mixture of pure Polynesians 
 with Melanesians ; and the result of such a fusion was supposed to 
 be a Caucasian type. P>ut if Polynesians are rightly regarded as 
 Caucasians, these features require no explanation. The Maoris have 
 traditions stating that their ancestors reached New Zealand from 
 an island called Hawaiki, but they really came from Rarotonga; and 
 it would seem that the immigration took place not more than 
 four centuries ago. It has been suggested that such traces of 
 Melanesian blood as the Maoris appear to retain may be due 
 to admixture with a small population of Melanesians inhabiting 
 New Zealand before the arrival of the strangers, but the question 
 of a pre-existing Melanesian population in those islands is still 
 undecided. 
 
 Although the process of tattooing, formerly prevalent among 
 the higher classes of the Maoris, comes under the domain of 
 Ethnology rather than Physical Anthropology, one tattooed head 
 is shown ; and tattooing is also present in the two Maori busts 
 exhibited on the east side of Case 8. In the same case is also 
 shown a number of photographs of Maoris, together with a few 
 skulls.

Mongolian Races. 21 
 
 In its most characteristic developmenl the Mongolian 
 Mongolian, or second great primary branch of Mankind presents 
 or Yellow bne f ]i ow i n g distinctive peculiarities : The com- 
 and Red piexiori is yellow or brownish, and the long black 
 Kaces. | |ajl . is ,., i:(I . s ,._ straight, Qearly round in Bection, 
 showing no tendency to curl, and scantily developed on all other 
 parts of the body except the scalp, while il is also late in making 
 its appearance. Although somewhat variable, the skull is generally 
 of medium length; the face is broad and flat, with prominent, 
 forwardly projecting cheek-bones; the nose is -mall ami more or 
 less narrow ; ami the eye-sockets are high and round, with slight 
 development of the overhanging ridges. The eyes themselves are 
 sunken with a narrow slit-like aperture between the lids, and in the 
 more typical members of the group with a vertical fold of skin over 
 the inner angle, and the outer angle somewhat elevated. The jaws 
 are moderately projecting, and the teeth of medium size. 
 
 This branch includes (i) the Eskimo, (ii) the typical Mongols 
 of Northern ami Central Asia, (iii) the Indonesians, and (iv) the 
 native inhabitants of America previous to the European immigra- 
 tion, ami their pure-bred descendants. The Brown Polynesians, 
 which have been included in this branch, are here classed as 
 Caucasians see p.tge 19). 
 
 The Eskimo of Eastern Arctic America, who appear to 
 ' We an offshoot from the typical Asiatic Mongols, in the 
 course of their wanderings northwards and eastwards across the 
 American Continent (where they have been hemmed in to the north 
 by t lie Arctic Ocean and to the south by American Indians) have 
 developed characters which are mostly modifications of those found 
 in allied tribes, such as the Chukchis, inhabiting the countries to 
 the west of Bering Strait. These special characteristics are most 
 developed in the tribes inhabiting Greenland; a typical Eskimo 
 -kttll displaying a combination of features by which it can be distin- 
 guished from that of any other race of Mankind. Eskimo show 
 the broad, flat faces, ami in certain instances the obliquely set eyes 
 characteristic of other Mongol races. They have reddish or brownish 
 dark-coloured >kin, and still' cylindrical hair on the scalp, but 
 scarcely any on other parts of the body. Although not tall, they are 
 by no means exc - -i\ ely shorl . [n many respects they form a transit ion 
 between the Mongol-like Siberians and the aborigines of America, 
 and thus justify the affiliation of the latter to the Mongol group. 
 In the froni side of Case 3 are exhibited the busts of an adult male.

 and female Eskimo, while above them are placed masks of an entire 
 family. Several skulls are likewise shown. In the centre of the 
 group is hung a photograph of a Koriak from Kamchatka, in order 
 to exhibit the approximation to the Eskimo type presented by the 
 physiognomy of this and kindred races from North-eastern Asia. 
 
 ... . The typical Asiatic Mongols may be conveniently, 
 
 Altnic . . 
 
 ! although not very sharply, divided into a northern and 
 
 a southern group. Of the former, or Mongolo-Altaic, 
 
 ° " group the members are united by affinities of language. 
 
 Prom the Altaic plateau of Central Asia these people have at intervals 
 
 poured forth their hordes over the lands lying to the west, and 
 
 thence penetrated almost to the centre of Europe. The Laplanders, 
 
 Finns, Magyars, and Turks are severally descendants of some of 
 
 these waves of migration ; but by long admixture with the nations 
 
 through which they passed, or among which they settled, their 
 
 original physical features have been more or less completely modified. 
 
 The Finns have, for example, become decidedly like the Blonde 
 
 Caucasians, or Xanthochroi, while the Osmanli, or European Turks, 
 
 approximate to the Melanochroi, or Dark Caucasian type. Even 
 
 the diminutive Lapps show so little of the attributes of the Mongol 
 
 branch that it is difficult to assign them a place in that group on 
 
 the ground of their physical characters. The Kirghiz belong to this 
 
 group ; and other tribes of the Altaic Mongols are Samoyeds, Tungus, 
 
 Koriaks, and Ostiaks. Samoyeds resemble Tungus in the shape of 
 
 the face, but Ostiaks are more like Finns and Russians. To the 
 
 Tungu branch belong the Manchu, who conquered the Chinese 
 
 Empire in 1G44, and founded a ruling dynasty. Four branches of 
 
 true Mongols are recognised, namely, the Eastern Mongols, or Tatars 
 
 (fig. 5), the Kalmuks, the Buriats, and the Hazara, or Aimauq. 
 
 The exhibited specimens include the bust of a typical Mongol 
 
 from Mongolia, a mask and photograph of a Kalmuk, as well as 
 
 several skulls of that race, a bust and skulls of Ostiaks, and skulls 
 
 of Samoyeds ; and a portrait of a Koriak is exhibited in the Eskimo 
 
 group, while a characteristic photograph of a Manchu is likewise 
 
 shown. Busts of a Chukchi and of a Yenisetch — Siberian tribes — 
 
 are shown in the same case (Case 3). 
 
 „. ... In the Sinitic, or second, division of the typical 
 
 „ Mongols is included the greater part of the p'opu- 
 
 lation of China, Tibet, Burma, and Siam, together 
 
 with numerous tribes of the Western Himalaya. 
 
 The chief distinctions from t hf Altaic division are to be found in

 their language and mode of life. They display the typical Mongol 
 features of straight, Mack hair on the Bcalp, very little hair elsem I 
 a coloured skin, usually of a leather-yellow tint, and oblique 
 eyes. Narrow skulls are extremely rare among them, and the slight 
 projection of the jaws often seen is by do means universal. Till quite 
 recently Chinese were easily recognised by wearing the "pigtail," 
 although this was only adopted at the advent of tin- Manchus in 
 ir,44. The Bhuteas, or Bod-dshi, of Tibet differ in their mode of 
 wearing the hair, as also in language. On the southern - 
 the western Himalaya are found numerous tribes, Buch as Bodos, 
 Lembos, Lepchas, Gurungs, Kampus, Kuch, Magars, Murmis, 
 Kirantis, Newars, and Draons, much resembling Tibetans in physical 
 characters and language, but mostly showing an admixture of Indian 
 blood. Another group centres round the Burmese, allied to whom 
 are the inhabitants of Aracan, the Khyengs in the mountains 
 dividing Aracan from the Irawadi, and the small tribes between the 
 latter and the Bramaputra. The Siamese, or Thai, form another 
 subgroup : and the Annamese in Tonkin and Cochin China likewise 
 standalone. The Karens of Pegu, the Mons of the [rawadi delta, 
 the Khos of Cambodia, and the Tsampas on the coast to the east oi 
 the mouths of the Mekon River likewise constitute distinct racial 
 groups. 
 
 In Case 3 are photographs, models of heads, and skulls of 
 Chinese, as well as a "pigtail," which displays in perfection the 
 length, straightness, and coarseness of the Mongol type of hair. In 
 the same case is shown a number of skulls of the above-mentioned 
 hill-races of the western Himalaya, presented about the middle of 
 last century by Mr. Brian H.Hodgson, sometime British Resident 
 at Khatmandu, the seat of the Nepal Government. Burn - 
 axe represented by several photographs and skulls.

 Japanese language t jj e Japanese (fig. 6) exhibit affinity with the

 Japanese, imt Koreans are ball, while Japanese are short.

 Several photographs in the front of Case 3 illustrate the type 
 of countenance characteristic of the Japanese; three skulls are alBp 
 exhibited. 
 
 Koreans are represented only by two skulls brought home by 
 II. M.S. Aetaeon in L882. 
 
 The third great division of the Mongol branch is 
 Indonesians. formC(1 bv fche nationalities best designated by 
 
 the term Indonesians. The group is frequently alluded to as 
 "Malays," but this leads to confusion ; and it is preferable to restrict 
 that term to the Menanghaban tribe, who originated about the 
 10th century in Sumatra. Indonesians are distributed over the greater 
 portion of the Malay Archipelago, and are also found, mixed with 
 Negroes, iu Madagascar. They speak a language with a common 
 root-type, although the words differ among the various tribes. 
 Typical Indonesians are easily recognised, but there is a transition 
 among some members of the group towards the typical Mongols, 
 the obliquity of the eyes being most pronounced in those tribes 
 which dwell nearest to the Asiatic mainland. Indonesians have in 
 most cases (although there are some dolichocephalic tribes) short aud 
 rather tall skulls, with more or less prominent cheek-bones, and 
 slightly projecting jaws. The colour of the skin is of a dirty 
 yellow ; and the characters of the hair conform to the ordinary 
 Mongol type. They may be divided as follows : (i) the inhabitants 
 of the Philippine Islauds, termed Tagals and Bisayas ; (ii) typical 
 Indonesians inhabiting the Malay Peninsula, and including Atchinese, 
 Passumas, Rejangs, Kenyas, and Lampongs of Sumatra ; (iii) the 
 Sundanese in the west of Java ; (iv) the Javanese of Eastern Java ; 
 (v) the Battaks in Sumatra ; (vi) the Indonesian natives of Borneo, 
 " classified as Sea-Dyaks or Iban, Kelamantan tribes. Kenyala-Kayan 
 tribes, and immigrant Malays ; and (vii) the Macassars and Buginese 
 in Celebes. Scattered members of the group are settled in Formosa, 
 Madagascar, and Ceylon. 
 
 Typical Indonesians are represented by the model of a head of a 
 male and several photographs of both sexes, as well as skulls. Some 
 of the faces shown are pleasing and handsome, even from the 
 European standpoint. 
 
 The Battak physiognomy is illustrated by a model and a photo- 
 graph ; while several Bornean tribes, such as Panghan, Ayah, Maloh, 
 and Kenya, are represented by photographs, the gift of Dr. Charles 
 Hose, on the east side of Case 4. The Javanese are more fully 
 illustrated, the specimens exhibited comprising three models of the

 head and several photographs and skulls. There are also skull- of 
 certain other races. 
 
 The Dyaks and Dnsuns of Borneo are represented only by a few 
 skulls. 
 
 Tin' model of the head of a Mas [slander is of interesl as 
 illustrating a cross-bred race; these islanders being apparently the 
 result of a mixture between the Indonesian and the Chinese types. 
 
 Native 
 Americans. 
 
 Exclusive of the Eskimo, the native inhabitants of 
 America (previous to the changes wroughl by the 
 
 Kurcjieaii conquest ), commonly known as "Indians" 
 (fig. 8), presented considerable uniformity of character from one 
 extremity of the continent to the other: although this uniformity

 is l>y no means so great as was at one time supposed. A 
 dolichocephalic race is known, for instance, from Lagoa Santa, in 
 the Minas Geraes district of Brazil; while a Californian or a Mexican 
 Pueblo Indian presents considerable dissimilarity to a Prairie or 
 Plains Indian. In all cases, however, the hair is straight and lank. 
 long and abundant on the scalp, but Bparse elsewhere; and. not- 
 withstanding the difference of climate under which different men 
 of the group exist, comparatively little variation occurs in the 
 colour of the skin, which, although generally referred to as reddish, 
 is best described as brownish, ranging from yellowish brown, 
 through olive-brown to reddish brown, and from a quite lighl to 
 a very dark tint. In certain districts special modifications are 
 noticeable in the form of the skull and features, but the Bame

 form reappears in widely separated localities; and skulls of almost 
 indistinguishable type occur in Vancouver island, Peru, and 
 Patagonia. Although in the special form of the nasal hones. 
 producing a high-bridged nose in the living face, as '.veil as in the 
 marked development of the brow-ridges and the retreating forehead, 
 the great majority of native American races are distinguished from 
 the typical Asiatic Mongols, yet in many other respects their 
 resemblance to the latter is so marked that, at least provisionally, 
 (hey may be regarded as aberrant members of the Mongol stock. 
 
 In consequence of their general uniformity in physical character- 
 istics, American natives are usually classified chiefly by the language. 
 In North America the following are the chief language-groups and 
 tribes : —

 for a town or village, dwell in fixed settlements in the arid region ; 
 some of them on the flat-topped rocky heights of New Mexico and 
 Arizona. Although not forming a single group, either in language 
 or in descent, they are united by their common usages, dwellings, 
 and general culture. In the latter respect they stand on a higher 
 plane than any other of the natives of the northern half of the 
 American continent.

 the other U Mr. Campbell Mackeller, arc shown in the same ease,

 Imlians in common with other members of the Mongol branch. The 
 same feature is likewise illustrated by the scalp of an Arawak. 
 The latter tribe is also represented by the skeletons of a male and a 
 female ; and skulls of several tribes are likewise shown. Patagonian 
 skulls, all of which are remarkable for the great prominence of the 
 brow-ridges, are represented by several specimens presented by the 
 Director of the La Plata Museum in 1894, and by one from the 
 Rio Oallegos given by Mr. U.S. Felton in 1908. The last of these 
 is noticeable on account of the excessive development of the feature 
 just mentioned. 
 
 The Negro, or Ethiopian, races are characterised by a 
 ° ' dark, often nearly black, complexion, and black hair, 
 or Black, typica] | v of a kind cal i ec j «f r j zz l y /' r, incorrectly, 
 Races. „ woo iiy » . that is to say, each hair is closely rolled 
 upon itself, and has an elliptical or flattened section. The beard 
 is of scanty or moderate development ; the skull is almost invariably 
 of the elongated type ; the cheek-bones are small and moderately 
 retreating ; the nose is broad and flat, with a low bridge ; the eyes 
 are prominent ; the lips are thick and everted ; and the teeth 
 relatively large. As additional characteristics may be mentioned 
 the narrowness of the pelvis and the proportionately long fore-arm. 
 The Negro-like races include (i) the African or True Negroes, 
 of the central portions of Africa : (ii) the Negrillos, or small 
 forest-races of Central and Western Equatorial Africa ; (iii) the 
 Bushmen of South A frica : (iv) the Oceanic Negroes, or Melanesians 
 and Papuans of Melanesia, New Guinea, Torres Strait, 1 and Tasmania ; 
 and (v) the Negritos, found in a pure state in the Andaman 
 Islands, but also forming a substratum of the population of many 
 of the ludo-Malay Islands, and some portions of the mainland of 
 southern Asia.

 proportions having given rise to many of the races and tribes of the 
 Sudan. The general characteristics are those mentioned in the 
 paragraph devoted to the Negro branch generally. En both - 
 the ridges above the eye-sockets are but slightly developed, so thai 
 the lower pari of the forehead is comparatively Hat. and the skull 
 is of the elongated, or dolichocephalic, type. The group is divisible 
 into two main sections, the typical Negroes, occupying that portion 
 of the continent north of an irregular line extending from the Rio 
 del Etey to the Albert Nyanza, and thence with a southerly trend to 
 the coast, and the Bantu to the south of this. The members of the 
 tirst group present great similarity of physical type, and are chiefly 
 distinguished by language; the converse being true of the Bantu. 
 To refer even to the more important races and tribes within a 
 limited space is very difficult, but the following remarks tr i \ <■ a clue 
 to some of the leading groups :- The more or less open country in 
 the eastern half of the continent as far south as the Zambesi is 
 inhabited by the Eastern Bantu, comprising such well-known tribes 
 as the Zanzibaris, including the Suaheli, the Mozambique tribes, 
 from the coast to Nyasaland, and the Betshuans further inland. 
 The tribes of the interior include the Bayeiye, the Batoka, and the 
 Barotse. To the south of these are the Southern Bantu, divisible 
 into the three main branches of Zulu-Xosa (Kafir), Bechuana, and 
 in the west, Eerero. In these Southern Bantu the colour of the 
 skin is lighter than in the tribes to the north, the hair is more 
 matted into tufts, the capacity of the skull is greater, the jaws arc 
 less projecting, and the teeth are smaller. To the northward of 
 these tribes, on the west, are the "Western Bantu, branches of which 
 extend into the forest-region of the heart of the continent. In 
 Portuguese territory, for instance, are various Bunda tribes ; the 
 lower reaches of the Congo are peopled by the Muslu Kongo, north 
 of whom, again, are the tribes of the Gabuu, including the 
 Mpongwe, and of the Cameruns and the Fang Negroes. 
 
 On the east side of Case ;, are displayed photographs and 
 specimens to illustrate Wesl African Negroes, including a large 
 number of skulls collected by the French traveller Paul da Chaillu, 
 and -ne presented by Sir II. M. Stanley, a torso of .-, Wesl 
 African Negro, as well as a bust of a Gabun native, are also 
 exhibited. Krnmans and other Wesl African tribes are represented 
 by photographs. In the sami ■ displayed a photograph of 
 Munosa, a polydactyle Negro, and a member of the Weitumba 
 tribe of the Wasagara, and a native of Ikwamba, in the [tumba

 A p ;1 ii from the skeleton of a Negro, which maybe from some 
 other pari of the continent, the front of Case 5 is chiefly devoted to 
 the Bantu Kafirs and the natives of South-cast Africa. Zulus arc 
 illustrated by photographs and a small series of skulls. 
 
 A i various spots across Africa a few degrees each 
 Negrillos, side of tlie e q Uator< f rom the Atlantic nearly to the 
 
 or . , Albert Nyanza, are scattered tribes of dwarf, short- 
 Plgrnies. headed Negro-like tribes, living apart from the 
 neighbouring races, and presenting a relationship to the taller, 
 long-headed true Negroes similar to that exhibited by the Negritos 
 of the Indian Ocean to the Papuans of New Guinea or the 
 Melanesians of Melanesia. Their hair is of the most frizzly type, 
 and their complexion lighter than that of most Negroes ; but in 
 the projecting jaws, wide nose, and protruding lips these Negrillos 
 exhibit an ultra development of the Negro type, and, like the 
 Negritos, show a low grade of organisation. Except as regards 
 bodily size, their only essential difference from true Negroes is 
 the tendency to a shortening and broadening of the skull. The 
 average height of the men has been given at A feet 7 inches, 
 and of the women 4 feet 3 inches, but the woman whose skeleton 
 is exhibited measured barely 3 feet 10 inches. One of the best- 
 known tribes of these Pigmies is that of the Akkas, but the 
 Wat was and the Bambutis are other tribes found on the upper 
 
 Congo. 
 
 The group is represented in the collection by the skeleton of a 
 female and the skull of a male Akka from Monbuttu, East Central 
 Africa, presented by Dr. Eniin, 1887 ; and by the skeleton of a 
 male Bambuti froni the Congo Forest, presented by Sir H. H. 
 Johnston. In addition to these, there is the bust of Bokani, the 
 eldest of a party of Pigmies (fig. 11) from the Ituri Forest who visited 
 London in L905, together with photographs of the entire party. All 
 these are exhibited on the west side of Case 5.

 of the frizzly type. Shorter and more Bparse than thai of the true 
 Negroes, it presents the appearance of growing in separate tufts 
 which coil up into balls, and is accordingly known as the "pepper- 
 corn" type. The beard is Bcanty, and little hair is developed 
 on any part of the body except the Bcalp. The skin is dirty yellow, 
 ?ery like the colour of ordinary leather. The women exhibit an 
 excessive development of the buttocks (steatopyga) ; and the Bkin 
 becomes much wrinkled at an earlj age. Unlike the Bantu, the 
 finger-nails are not light-coloured. The width of the cheek-bones 
 and the narrowness of the forehead and chin communicate a I"/., i 
 Bhape to the front view of the fare and a Mongol-like type to the 
 whole skull, which has many peculiarities. The forehead is straight 
 and prominent, the nose broader and flatter than in any other i 
 and the lips are thick and prominent, although the jaws project 
 than in true Negroes. The average height of the men is about 
 I feet 8 inch.-. Bushmen are probably some of the most primitive 
 of the inhabitants of Africa, but at a remote epoch their territory 
 seems tn have been invaded from the north by Negroes, crossing 
 with whom has produced the mixed race known as Bottentots, who 
 differ from Bushmen by their darker skin. 
 
 The group is represented on the we-t side of Case ."< by the busts 
 of a male and female Bushman (fig. L6), and by a couple of skulls. 
 one of which is that of a Bushman and tic other that, of a 
 Hottentot. There are also two photographs of a Bushman buy.

 that in the skulls of the males tie' ridges above the ej

 especially in New Guinea and the neighbouring islands: while the 
 skull itself is mostly higher and narrower, although some skulls 
 are essentially African in character. The hair on the scalp, which 
 grows in tufts, is very luxuriant, and stand- out widely from tie 
 head, this being aided by combing, and thus giving rise to the well- 
 known designation of "Mop-Heads." The beard also is more

 colour of the skin ia nearly black in New Caledonia, chocolate-brown 
 in New ( I iiinea, and bine black in Fiji, 
 
 Melanesians likewise form a basis of the population in districts 
 extending far beyond their presenl central distribution. Ou the 
 other hand, in many parts of the Melanesian area there is evidence 
 of extensive mixture with Negrito, Malay, and Polynesian elements 
 in varying proportions. 
 
 The Papuans of the islands of Torres Strait are represented by 
 a large series of skulls, of which a few were collected during the 
 voyage «'f II. M.S. Alert, although the great bulk was obtained by

 practised in that island. The same feature is exhibited in a dried 
 head from Malicollo presented by Mr. H. Anson in 1889, and by a 
 second purchased in 1883, as well as in a skull presented in 1876 
 by Mr. AY. YY. Perry. Skulls of natives of many of the other islands 
 of the Melanesian Archipelago are exhibited, as well as photographs 
 of natives of New Britain (fig. 9), New Caledonia, New Hebrides, the 
 Loyalty Group, etc. There is also a bust of a native of the Solomon

 unfortunately now exterminated, appear to 
 been pure, although somewhat aberrant, members of the Melanesian 
 p of Negroes; their modification from the original type being 
 apparently the result of long isolation, and not of crossing with 
 other tribes. Their distinctive Negro characters are shown in the 
 form of the nose and the nasal bones (fig. L3), the thick, projecting 
 lips, the large size of the teeth, and the tufted, frizzly, and elliptical 
 hair; their chief aberrant feature being the abnormal width of the 
 skull in the hind, or parietal, region. As in Australians, the last

 occurrence among higher ra

 skull has a persistent interfrontal suture. A secondhand probably 
 female, skull was presented by Mr. <i. C. Trench in 1894 ; and there 
 is also an imperfect skull, the gift of Mr. W. Saville Kent. The 
 
 - inal appearance of the aborigines is illustrated by coloured husts 
 of Wouraddy and his wife Truganini (tie. 15). The latter, who died 
 in 1876, was the last pure-bred survivor of this interesting race. A

 in many characters of the skull and face. The Andamanese, who 
 shave i heir heads, are sooty in colour and beardless, but some of the 
 other races are well bearded. 
 
 Andamanese are fast disappearing as a pure-bred race ; and two 
 complete skeletons of this race exhibited in Case 6 are therefore of 
 very considerable interest. Skulls and photographs of Andamanese 
 are likewise exhibited ; and there are also photographs of the 
 Negritos of the Island of Luzon, in the Philippines, as well as a 
 bust of a Negrito from the Isle of Timor. 
 
 The Negritos of the Malay Peninsula, commonly known as 
 
Negritos. 
 
 Semangs, appeal to be remnants of a primitive population preceding 
 the Malay immigration. Semangs are decidedly Negro-like, having 
 dark chocolate-coloured Bkin, frizzly hair, growing from "peppercorn- 
 like" tufts, thick lip-, and somewhat protruding jaws; the latter 
 features being, however, less marked than in African Negroes. 
 Sakais, who have been regarded as Negritos, are related to 
 Veddas and Australians, and arc referred to on page 17. A- 
 previously mentioned, in Perak the Sakais, who are hillmen, inhabit 
 the right bank of the Perak River, while the plains-dwelling and 
 nomad Semangs are found on the left hank.
