The length (52.50 ± 1.66 cm) of the skull was approximately two and half times in comparison to its width (21.50 ± 1.09cm) with cephalic index of 41. The nuchal crest and torus frontalis were not conspicuous. Facial crest and facialgrooves were indistinct. The orbit was circuloid and measured 23.00 ± 0.782 cm2 in area. The frontal bone formed largest (45.00 %) part of the orbital rim. The maxillary part of the skull was one and half times (60.00 cm) to that of the cranial part (40.00 cm).
