✦ Synopsis

In this paper the correlations that were considered in the ninth, tenth, and eleventh Craniometric Studies will be again dealt with. I n this case the Alaska group of North American Indians, reported by 'Hrdli5ka (1) has been selected, for, like all the other aborigines of the Western Hemisphere, they are Mongolian in origin. The present paper may therefore be regarded as a direct sequel t o Craniometric Study no. 11. The same numbers of crania were utilized, namely, thirtyfour male (nos. 242875 to 242904) and thirty-four female (nos. 243973 t o 300897).
