This value is below that of the Le Peyrat 5 right metacarpal 3 [ (Patte, 1968)] and the mean of a modem British sample [ ± , N = 38 (Musgrave, 1970)]. The metacarpal 2 base has a large concave surface for the trap- ezoid bone, accompanied by facets for the trapezium and capitate at right angles to each other and close to 45° from the diaphyseal axis. The angle of 50° for the capitate facet is close to the mean of a recent Euroamerican sample [° ± °, N = 53 (Niewoehner et fl/., 1997)]. In conjunction with this oblique orientation of the Gough's Cave 1 metacarpal 2 / capitate articulation, Gough's Cave 1 possesses a large and projecting metacarpal 3 styloid process. The index of styloid projection (styloid projection vs. metacarpal 3 articular length) for Gough's Cave 1 is This value is close to the mean for a recent Euroamerican sample of [± , N = 33 (Niewoehner et al., 1997)] and below that for the Le Peyrat 5 right metacarpal 3 [ (Patte, 1968)]. The metacarpal 5 base combines.
