The authors of Crania Britannica made use ofit more particularly to take the three maximum radii—the frontal,the parietal, and the occipital, whatever the point in each bone on.

Brooas craniograph. 0, Auricular point, or centre of theauditory meatus ; O A, Auriculo-alveolar radius; O B, Auriculo-supra-orbital radius;o c, Aurinulo-bregmatic radius ; O D, Auriculo-lambdoidean radius ; O E, Auriculo-iniac radius; o F, Auriculo-opisthiac radius; A S, Alveolo-condylean line, or plane,giving the tota] projection of the skull; B g.

By slightly modifying it we areable to take the three additional radii of Mi.
