(CLICK to Enlarge) Skulls with moderately protrusive teeth, extending beyond
the chin (mesognathous) and a rounded (mesocephalic) cranium match types of
colonists who entered Spain and Portugal at the close of the Neolithicperiod. They may also have entered North America
by way of the Bering Strait, using water-borne transportation. People with
skulls like this (from Holliston Mills, Tennessee) might have constituted the
Algonquian population at the time when Woden-lithi and his compatriots
visited Canada (Fell 1982). ( Photo Walter Eitel.) |
