COLLECTION OF SKULLS
The precise shape of the skull is a valuable clue to the race to which any man belongs or has belonged. Lying in a store-room at the Natural History Museum, South Kensington, London, are three thousand skulls, comprising the largest collection of skulls in the world. The collection was presented to the museum by the Royal College of Surgeons. This valuable collection is now to be put into order and a catalogue made.
