Richard Lynn[edit]

Looked at the wikipedia article for this guy and it seems that at best he is highly controversial, at worst a racist pseudo-scientist. Is there any reason to have his "study" on cranial capacity by different races in such a prominent position on this page? The way it is presented immediately after the cranial capacites of homo sapiens and his ancestors gives validity to a highly dubious piece of research.

^I'm afraid anthropologists with their studies of race always discrimanate and aee inheriently racists. Ir's a sad fact. --71.107.217.121 05:18, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They discover simple truths which leftists find offensive, so are deemed "racist" automatically.

Other animals' cranial capacites?[edit]

What is the Baboon's cranial capacity? I hear it is the second highest of the primates? Also, I hear elephants and many cetaceans have a much larger brain than humans. could we get some quatifications? 82.18.44.72 (talk) 21:39, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updated table needed[edit]

Hi all,

Table making a bit beyond my skills -- especially because the current table uses a different formatting than in the Wikipedia recommended code, but the data needs to be updated to reflect the latest statistical analysis, as has already been mentioned in the article.

http://www.columbia.edu/~rlh2/PartII.pdf

Page 29 and 32 provide the necessary data.
