Large-headed:

Large-headed groups are charcterised by a sum of head length and head breadth reaching at least 350 mm. Very large heads with values above 355 mm are found in Northern Europe, here especially in Borreby, Paleo Atlantid, and Dalo Faelid types. It was one reason for some authors to place them in their own Cromagnid or Upper Paleolithic race. Equally large or even larger heads are found in Patagonians (357 mm in Ona) and Algonquian natives of America. Only slightly smaller are the heads of Fuegians and some Plains Indians. In North Asia large heads with values slightly above 350 mm are typical for some Tungusic and Siberian groups, but also Ainu. Sporadically large heads also appear in the Balkans, the Caucasus, and in Kurds, Inuit, and Polynesia (Mangaia of the Cook Islands reach 350 mm, Murrayians of South Australia reach 348 mm). In Africa the largest-headed group are the Bamum with a sum of 349 mm.
