[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] Daynes and their sloppy departures into science fiction on display again. Their bias just drips off their reconstructions. Even Coon said there was not a single narrow-nosed individual in the Afalou and Taforalt sample. And, of course, her white colleagues (those that have a clue about bioanthropology, anyway) will never call her and others out on it. When they make these reconstructions they have free rein to make it up as they go along. Seems to be an unspoken understanding that you can do what you want, as long as you don't make it too obvious. But it's apparently a taboo to say that white researchers are capable of doing this kind of thing, and that it seems to be a pattern. Because saying that would mean you believe in a "conspiracy". [QUOTE]The [b]lower level is represented by the skeleton of a single adult male, to whom we shall refer by his catalogue number, #28[/b]. Number 28 was a short man, about 161.5 cm. tall, equivalent in stature to Galley Hill, Combe Capelle, and the male negroid from Grimaldi. His skull differs greatly from the others taken from the upper level of the same site. It is ovoid in shape, hyperdolichocephalic, and low vaulted; it possesses a slop- ing forehead, a large U-shaped palate, and high orbits. It is only moder- ately massive, and is about equal in this respect to Combe Capelle. This skull is that of a generalized white type, and can be placed without much difficulty into the general class of Galley Hill and Combe Capelle. [b]Like the latter, its nasal aperture is wide, its index chamaerrhine.[/b][/QUOTE] https://archive.org/stream/racesofeurope031695mbp/racesofeurope031695mbp_djvu.txt [QUOTE]The paired nasal bones unite at a sharp angle, without trace of flatten- ing, while the bridges are high and mostly convex. The nasal spine is strong and projects far forward. The [b]nasal index, which lies just over the border of chamaerrhiny[/b], 46 furnishes a real metrical difference between Afalou and Cr6-Magnon. The [b]elevation of the index is due to a shorter height as well as to a greater width[/b]. Not one of the [b]Afalou skulls is actually leptorrhine[/b]. This feature, combined with the sloping forehead and heavy browridges, serves to [b]differentiate the types in the two continents.[/b] [/QUOTE] https://archive.org/stream/racesofeurope031695mbp/racesofeurope031695mbp_djvu.txt [/QB][/QUOTE]
