General anthropological analysis Studying the mean values of the male skulls, it can be established that they are moderately long (182,90), moderately wide (143,70), moderately high (137,25), their capacity large (1492 cm3), the bizygomatic breadth moderately wide (134,29), the total and upper facial heights moderate (116,18 and 69,84, respectively). The female skull are characterized by long (175,20), narrow (136,80), and moderately high (131,42) features, a medium capacity (1232 cm

), moderately wide bizygomatic breadth (.125,16), and moderately high total and upper face (107,20 and 65,42, respectively). If the mean values of the cranial Indices are examined it will be found that the medium long index group (78,30 and 78,10) is characteristic for both the male and the female skulls. With respect to the length-height index, the male skulls belong to the medium high (74,82), the female ones to the high (75,14), indexgroup. With respect to this index, the difference between the index-groups of the two sexes derives from the fact that it is the upper limit of orthocrany which is characteristical for the male skulls, and the lower limit of orthocrany for the female ones. As regards the breadth-height index, both the male and the female skulls are medium high (95,88 and 95,14). The transversal-parietal index is wide Cor both sexes (males 69,35, females 70,50). The total and upper face indices are tiimilarly agreeing (males 86,08 and 51,21, females 86,60 and 52,40), that IB, medium for both sexes. The orbital and nasal indices reveal some differences between the two sexes, dhile the male skulls are of a mesoconch (83,17) and mesorrhinian (50,82) cha-
