Abstract
IN the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh for the present session (1910–11) appears a series of four papers devoted to the physical anthropology of the races of Australasia. The papers are by three authors, two of them human anatomists, Prof. R. J. Berry and Dr. A. W. W. Robertson, the third a mathematician, Mr. K. Stuart Cross. The authors seek to fix the position of the Tasmanian and Australian natives amongst present and past races of mankind by applying biometrical methods to certain measurements of the skull.
