6, 4952-5. 1964]. 2, 3, - 4. 4). - - 376 Anthropology General craniological characteristic The good preservation of cranial bones, caused most the presence of naturally crushed marine shells in the ground, has eliminated the need for conducting substantial restoration works. The skulls are characterized relatively small size, moderate robustness or even gracility. The only massive skull with well developed bone relief is the one from burial No. 6, 4952-5. All adult skulls and their fragments stored in were measured according to the standard procedure introduced R. Martin and modified V.P. Alexeyev and G.F. Debetz 1964]. Individual measurements are given in 2 and 3, and means are presented in 4. With increase in number, characteristics of the pooled series have somewhat changed compared to those previously 4). Cranial breadth has decreased and so has the cranial index; cranial height, measured both from basion and from porions has decreased too. Absolute frontal breadth has decreased, but relative to the braincase breadth it has become larger. Facial depth (basion-prosthion length) and the upper facial index have increased. The alveolar prognathism has become more marked. The breadth has remained as large, and has increased relative to cranial breadth. The vertical dimensions of the upper face, and nose have decreased. Horizontal facial flatness has become more pronounced in terms of both nasomalar and zygo- maxillary angles. The nasal bridge, judging the dacryal and symotic indices, has become flatter. The nasal protrusion angle has remained the same in the male series and has become somewhat larger in the female series.
