Today, physical anthropology, especially cranial indices, has fallen out of favour.
"I suppose you are aware," said he, checking off points upon his fingers, "that the cranial index is a constant factor?"
Brachycephalic (cranial index - 84-85)
Mesocephalic (cranial index - 78-79), less brachycephalic (cranial index - 84-85)
However the cranial index of the Grenelle and Furfooz skulls were different, as one of the Furfooz crania was not broad, but mesocephalic.
The cephalic index or cranial index is the ratio of the maximum width of the head of an organism multiplied by 100 divided by its maximum length (i.e., in the horizontal plane, or front to back).
A 1936 report by Sir R. H. Hoare, British Ambassador in Bucharest, says of the Soviet Minister to Romania, "his appearance is somewhat sly and furtive, and his cranial index might be of interest to criminologists."
The overall anatomy of the head was said to be brachycephalic to hyperbrachycephalic (Cranial index: 81-86) whereby the condition is caused by both rather high breadth of the head and a medium length of the neurocranium, whose back part is often somewhat flattened (planoccipital).
He commented, "Using the recent reanalysis by Gravlee et al. (2003), we can observe in Figure 2 that the maximum difference in cranial index due to immigration (in Hebrews) is much smaller than the maximum ethnic difference, between Sicilians and Bohemians.
In 2002, the anthropologists Corey S. Sparks and Richard L. Jantz claimed that differences between children born to the same parents in Europe and America were very small and insignificant, and that there was no detectable effect of exposure to the American environment on the cranial index in children.
