The temporo-parietal region differs in convexity with the type of
the skull, being usually quite flat in pronounced dilochocephaly and
decidedly convex in marked brachycephaly. Besides this, it is also
subject to individual and groupal variations. In the series at hand,
in two-thirds of both the male and the female skulls the region is of
about medium convexity. Among the remainder of the specimens it is
rather interesting to note that while in a third of the cases in the
males the region is flat and in no case bulging, these conditions are
practically reversed in the females. The temporo-parietal region of the
brain tended evidently to a greater relative development in the females
of this series than in the males.
