Abstract

THE Bulletin der Schweizerischen Gesellschaft fur Anthropologie and Ethnologie, 1941-42, contains a list of members of the Society, a report of meetings held during 1941, and three original articles. Dr. Hans Dietschy advances a number of theories to account for and to explain the attributes and nature of the Aztec pantheon. Dr. Lucia Graf describes some late medieval skeletal remains which were excavated from Holderbank in the Solothurn Canton in 1940, and Prof. Otto Schlaginhaufen provides a very complete anatomical and anthropometric description of four skeletons from Darvela near Truns. Late Iron Age (la Tène period) material was found with these bones. The cranial indexes of the skulls were respectively 76.1 and 74.5 for two male specimens, and 79.4 and 82.8 for two female skulls.
