Report on a Human Skull from the Freedown, Ringwould, Kent  continued

Summary.   A dolicocephalic skull, with frontal keeling, obelionic grooving and prominent occiput, of a vigorous middle-aged male. Presumably a full complement of teeth present at death; these severly crown-worn, but perfectly healthy.    Period.    The osteological features of the vault, the characters of the jaws, and the condition of the teeth, all suggest the tentative reference at latest of this specimen to the Pagan Saxon period.
