But with respect to the ancient Germans, there certainly was among them one very prevalent form of head, and even the varieties of feature which occur among the Marcomans for example, on Marcus Aurelius column all seem to oscillate round one central type. The Graverow Type This is the Graverow type of Ecker, the Hohberg type of His and Rutimeyer, the Swiss anatomists.
In the gorilla and certain other monkeys, the cranium of the adult male presents a strongly-marked sagittal crest, which is absent in the female; and Ecker found a trace of a similar difference between the two sexes in the Australians. We have seen that certain male monkeys have a well- developed beard, which is quite deficient, or much less developed in the female.
So that the correspondence in general structure, in the minute structure of the tissues, in chemical composition and in constitution, between man and the higher animals, especially the anthropomorphous apes, is extremely close. Shows a human embryo, from Ecker, and a dog embryo, from Bischoff. Labelled in each are: a. Fore-brain, cerebral hemispheres, etc. b. Mid-brain, corpora quadrigemina. c.
Among the most prominent advocates of this view, we may name the late Sir Charles Lyell, Mivart, and Richard Owen, in England; and in Germany, Alexander Braun, Ecker, Gegenbaur, Oswald Heer, W. His, Nägeli, Rütimeyer, Schaaffhausen, Virchow, Karl Vogt, A. W. Volkmann, Weismann, Zittel, and here also Moriz Wagner, and among the philosophers, Eduard von Hartmann.
She had pronounced prognathism, which gave her a simian appearance. Ecker examined in 1876 a woman who died at Fribourg, whose face contained a full beard and a luxuriant mustache. Harris reports several cases of bearded women, inmates of the Coton Hill Lunatic Asylum. One of the patients was eighty-three years of age and had been insane forty-four years following a puerperal period.
In the human foetus, the sylvian fissure is formed in the course of the third month of uterogestation. The sulci, properly so called, begin to appear in the interval between the end of the fourth and the beginning of the sixth month of foetal life, but Ecker is careful to point out that, not only the time, but the order, of their appearance is subject to considerable individual variation.

"What, without Mr Leigh?" said the gunner; "that's a likely tale, that is. Here, come on lads, and let's find him. Ahoy!" "Ahoy!" came back from the rocks. "There he is," said one of the men. "No, my lads, that's only the ecker," said Billy Waters. "Hark ye Ahoy!" "Ahoy!" came back directly. "Hoy hoy hoy-y-y!" shouted the gunner again. "Hoy hoy-y-y!" came back.
Ecker, translation, in 'Anthropological Review, Oct. 1868, pp. 351-356. She comes to maturity at an earlier age than man. As with animals of all classes, so with man, the distinctive characters of the male sex are not fully developed until he is nearly mature; and if emasculated they never appear.
