THE
NORTH

except
where much Nordic blood is apparent, is very scanty, consisting of a
few widely separated hairs. The body hair again is largely
deficient, for there is seldom any on the chest or abdomen; even the
pubic hair is scanty, and on men as well as on women its area of
growth is sharply outlined at its upper border. The external
genitalia which this hair partly conceals are as a rule small.
Thirty
different series give the stature of the Lapps over a span of 130
years. Eleven series published between 1870 and 1900, give means of
138 to 156 cm., which could be averaged at 151 cm. Twenty-seven
others, measured between 1905 and 1934, and including several
thousand Lapps, range from 155 to 164 cm.; 17 during this
period the Lapps grew, apparently, seven or eight centimeters. This
may be accounted for either as evidence of continuous progressive
mixture, or the influence of the stature increase tendency in
northwestern Europe, or both.
A
study of Lapp bodily proportions shows that the trunk is long in
proportion to the legs, which are especially short in the tibial
segment, and often bowed; the arms are relatively long, especially
in the humeral segment. The hands and feet are as a rule small and
delicate. Despite the great relative arm length, both shoulders and
hips are narrow, and these peculiarities are especially accentuated
in the more brunet, shorter, and presumably less mixed segment of
the Lapp population.18
The
head of the Lapps, while large in proportion to the body size, is
absolutely small. The length ranges in the low 180’s, and the
breadth in the 150’s, while the height is probably about 122 mm.
The cephalic index means range from 80 to 88; and a large list of
series shows no change during the last century. There are, however,
regional differences; the center of extreme round headedness lies
among the inland groups in northern Norway, while the Swedish,
Finnish, and Kola Peninsula Lapps become progressively narrower
headed. The mean for the purest Reindeer Lapps of Norway is 87;
for the easternmost Lapps, 80 to 83.
The
forehead of the Lapps is narrow in proportion to the parietal
breadth; the profile of the head from above is a short ovoid. The
occiput is flat-curved, with some flattening at lambda. Browridges,
as a rule, are absent, and the forehead is usually steep, and
frequently equipped with frontal bosses. The faces of the Lapps are
extraordinarily short, with well- substantiated means of 112 mm. for
nasion-menton height. These may be compared with the means of
124-126 mm. usual among either Norwegians or Finns. In this the
Lapps differ from known whites or mongoloids to an extraordinary
degree, and an extreme absolute facial shortness must

THE
RACES OF EUROPE
be
considered a distinctive Lapp feature. Upon further examination, it
may be seen that this shortness lies almost entirely in the
masticatory segment of the face height; the alveolar borders of the
maxillae are extraordinarily shallow, and the mandible is very
low, weak, and feebly developed.19 The jaw is not,
however, narrow at the rear, for the bigonial diameter is as great
as 108 mm. on Norwegian Lapps, and greater even among “pure”
Nomads.20 The jaw converges rapidly toward the chin,
which is small, pointed, and frequently receding. The teeth are very
small, and their roots short. Thus the Lapp face is distinguished by
a reduction of jaw size and an oral shallowness extreme and perhaps
unique among mankind. It must be considered as a Lapp specialization
coincident with their extremely short stature, and especially with
the shortening of the distal leg segment.
Otherwise
the Lapp face takes a position midway, in many respects, between
whites and mongoloids. The bizygomatic diameter, of 140 mm., or
thereabouts, is in the white range; it is narrow in proportion to
the vault, but it seems wide in relationship to jaw and forehead.
The malars, while not notable for lateral jut, project forward
prominently. The nose is on the whole low and flattish; with a
straight or concave bridge, low root, and a peculiar snubbed or
pointed, up-turned tip. This prominence of the tip is retained
characteristically in mixture. On the whole the nose is mesorrhine,
and is in this respect not unlike those of many of the Finnish and
Slavic peoples in eastern Europe. The eyes are widely separated, set
in low orbits, and overhung in some instances with median or
external folds, rarely with the mongoloid epicanthus.
On
the whole, the Lapp crania, as the Lapp soft parts, take an
intermediate position between mongoloid and white standard
forms. In some special characters the Lapps are unique, as in the
masticatory development, and in the orbit, where
Hisinger-Jagerskiold has found a curiously primitive bony
conformation.21 The possession of these peculiar
specializations and primitive traits should prevent the Lapps
from being considered a hybrid mongoloid-white racial form.
Compared to central Asiatic mongoloids, the Lapps are little
specialized. The soft and often fine head hair, the absence of the
blue-black hair pigment shade, the infrequency of the mongoloid
eyefold, and the absence of an excessive lateral malar development
or of great facial width, are evidence of this lack of
specialization in a mongoloid direction.
There
are many features which give the Lapps an infantile appearance which
cannot be accidental; these include the body and limb proportions,
