In this cerebrum, as in nearly all the others of Eskimos,the calcarine and postcalcarine, whether separate or confluent, do notdescribe the well-marked curve (convexity dorsad) toward the ventro-mesial border as seems fairly characteristic of Caucasian brains. In thisbrain, for example, the calcarine complex passes directly caudad andin a nearly straight line, and reaching the hemicerebral border at apoint much further dorsad. This naturally renders the ventral borderof the cuneus straight instead of curved, as 34 Encephalic Anatomy of the Eaces. Fig. 1. Brain of Atana; lateral view of the left hemicerebrum.
