Description: | Whangerei, Auckland, New Zealand CULT Polynesian: Maori New Zealand Polynesia The skull has a square yellow label on the left parietal bone which reads 'Maori skull, Maunu Cave nr. Whangerei Township, Auckland N.Z. Thomas Steel Esq. Donor 1886.' The left temporal bone has the letters 'N.Z' written in black ink.. The skull accession number appears on the left parietal 'E.589'-There is a modern white tag that is tied around the left zygomatic arch which also has the accession number on it 'E.589/3'. The skull is Dolichocephalic and fairly heavy. The wear on this individual's teeth is indicative of an adult in the latter half of this age range, 25-49. However, the sutures show very little closure. It should be concluded that the individual was somewhere within the age range of 25-49, most likely the latter half. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | SKULL : HUMAN : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
