--------------------------+--------+---------+--------+--------- Crania (both sexes) | Length | Breadth | Height | Cranial | | | | index --------------------------+--------+---------+--------+--------- | (11) | (11) | (7) | (11) Asiatic Eskimo | 17.8 | 14.1 | 13.2 | _79.3_ | | | | | (6) | (6) | (6) | (6) Northwest American Eskimo | 17.5 | 13.2 | 13.1 | _75.1_ --------------------------+--------+---------+--------+--------- There were also taken the weight, capacity, circumference, longitudinal arch, length of the frontal, parietal, and occipital, "zygomatic diameter," and in two specimens of each series the facial angle. To-day these data have but a historical value. In 1882, Quatrefages and Hamy,[114] in their "Crania ethnica" (p. 440) give the measurements of two male Kaniagmiouts (Kodiak Indian, A. Pinart, collector) and one female Mahlemiout. The principal measurements of these skulls are as follows: ----------------------+----------+----------- | Males (2)| Female (1) ----------------------+----------+----------- Skull: | | Length | 18.6 | 17.9 Breadth | 14.2 | 13.9 Height (bas.-bg.) | 14.3 | 13.2 Cranial index | _76.34_ | _77.65_ Nose: | | Length | 5.9 | 5.1 Breadth | 2.3 | 2.3 Nasal index | _38.98_ | _45.09_ Facial index, total | _77.69_ | _70.37_ Orbital index | _92.68_ | _90.24_ ----------------------+----------+----------- In 1883 Dr. Irving C. Rosse, in his "Medical and Anthropological Notes on Alaska,"[115] refers to his examination of a number of Eskimo skulls from the St. Lawrence Island brought to the Army Medical Museum.[116] There are no measurements outside of a reference to the capacity, but there are two excellent chromolithographs showing two female crania, besides a number of outline drawings.
