The twomodes probably represent the sexes, as discussed in the text. UNGULATE MORTALITY, LANGEBAANWEG AND ELANDSFONTEIN 81 breadth distribution had departed significantly from normaUty, then the use ofa single set of constants to calculate ages from crown heights in the mixedsamples would be open to serious question. All crown heights and breadths were measured to the nearest tenth of amillimetre with a single pair of Helios dial-reading calipers. INTERPRETATION OF THE LANGEBAANWEG ANDELANDS
