[QUOTE]Originally posted by Kalonji: [QB] [QUOTE]The means for the indices of the ten samples in the series shown in table 1 indicate a range of 16 points, viz., from 70 to 86 [b]This spread covers all divisions of hair form according to Martin ('28) who considered hair with an index of 50-75 to be curly; 75-80 wavy; and 80-100 to be straight.[/b] It is of interest that two samples (94 and 310) were wavy, if not curly, in the gross specinieii aiid that two other samples, whose indices were eveii lou7cr (392 and 310-77) appeared to be straight. [b]The range of means for the indices of ten Negroes found by Steggerda and Seibert ('41) amounted to 17 points.[/b] However, the hair of the total group of Paracas mummies shows a mean of 81.81 for the index which stands midway between Woodbury axid Woodburp's fiiidiiigs for the Mesa Verde Indians of 79.77 and for the Basket Maker Indians of 82.81. It is within the range of indices reported by Steggerda and Seibert for the Maya, Hopi, Navajo and Zuni Indians (85.04, 82.98, 82.53, 80.46, respectively).[/QUOTE]EDIT: Yeah Truthcentric, you're right. I guess I got thrown off by the seperate mentions of cross section and transverse index. The former mention pertains to meassurements of the cross section, the latter to cross section index [QUOTE]Lengthening of the hair has been related to the breaking charge, to main [b]cross-section diameters[/b] and to [b]transverse index[/b] (100 x minimum diumeter~maximumd iamehr) by computing correlation and multiple regression coefficients (Table 1).[/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
