摘要：
Based on the coefficient of racial likeness, a division into 5 groups is suggested: (A) Serbo-Croats, Turks, Greeks, Magyars, Slovenes, Roumanians, Czechs, Great Russians, Italians (Siena), with short skulls and large height-length index; (B) Swiss, Alsatians, Badensians, Wurtenberger, Bavarians (Altbayerisch and Waischenfeld), Vorarlberger, Tyrolese, English Bronze Age, with broad skulls and large breadth-height index; (C) Etruscans, Pompeians, Basques, Guanche, French, Copts; (D) English (Whitechapel and Farringdon St.), British Neolithic and Iron Age, Anglo-Saxons, Reihengraber, Medieval Austrians, Swedish Prehistoric, Dynastic Egyptians, Spanish Bronze Age, Medieval Bohemians, with long skulls and low breadth-height and breadth-length indices; (E) Predynastic Egyptian and modern Sardinian, with very narrow skulls. A, B and D are more closely connected with C than with one another. Calvarial length, breadth, and height are more important in classification than facial measurements.
