A journey to Ashango-Land, and further penetration into equatorial Africa . upper surface of the cranium, held at armslength, with the foremost part of the face just hiddenby the frontal or supraciliary border of the craniiun,the outer border of the hind half of the zygomata isvisible. Viewed from the base, as in fig. 3, the in-tervals between the arches and the alisphenoid wallsof the cranium appear of the greater width commonlycharacterizing the skulls of low races as comparedwith more advanced and bigger-brained people. The usual sutures of the adult are present, toge-ther with the outer half of that between the ex- andsuper-occipital (on the outside of the skull); thefrontal suture is obliterated, as in most adult lambdoid, or occipito-parietal suture, is moderatelybroad and crenulate, with a small wormian ossicleon the left side. The mastoid suture is narrow andcrenate where it joins the ex - occipital, but be-comes a linear harmonia as it extends to thejugular foramen. The masto-parietal is crenate but App. I.
