Description

Excerpt from The New Princeton Review, Vol. 5: January March May Slavonic type, characterized by a shorter skull, a darker complexion, and a smaller stature; and lastly, there are to be seen in Celtic coun tries, besides the tall Celt of the tento-scandic type, who, by-the-bye, is ignored in this work of Penka's in so far as regards the Celts of the British Isles at the present day, two other types, of which the one is distinguished by dark hair, a short skull, and small stature, while the other has a long skull. But this last, since it may be regarded as inclusive of the ancient Iberians, Japygians, Siculi, and other peoples Aryanized in speech only within historical times, is to be eliminated, as being obviously not Aryan. It is sometimes spoken of as the cro-magnon type, so called from a remarkable skull, sup posed to be a good example of it and of very ancient date, found at cro-magnon, in the Valley of the Vezere, in the Department of the Dordogne. I take the liberty, as a rule, of following those who call it Iberian. We have now remaining, as more or less Aryan, three types, one tento-scandic, one Slavonic, and one Cel tic; but it is found that they admit of being further reduced, for the Celtic type in question appears to resemble the Slavonic one so thoroughly that the two may be regarded as forming but one type, which may, therefore, be termed slavo-celtic, and considered to in olude not only a large element in the population of Celtic countries and the bulk of the Slavs, but also to preponderate considerably throughout southern Germany, Switzerland, and the neighborhood of the Alps generally.
