The height of the face stands largely, though not absolutely, in
correlation with the length of the head, a feature which becomes
apparent also in our series. The collections from more westerly
Virginia and the Lenape groups, all of which show rather short crania,
give also the shortest faces. Maine and Massachusetts follow, with
Rhode Island and New York. The Indians of Staten Island, Long Island,
and Manhattan Island, so far as the males are concerned, all find a
place in the upper half of the series, with long faces, and the same
is true of the few more easterly Virginia specimens in which the face
could be measured, and of the males of southeastern Canada. The latter,
with those of Manhattan Island, occupy the upper limit of the scale.
The females throughout show more uniformity than the males in their
measurements.
