The lips of a typical specimen are somewhat thick. The nose is broad, often arched and high, but coarse. The jaws project, and they may as a rule be said to be prognathous. They are generally small in stature and in islands where the natives are comparatively large sized, there is always evidence of their mixture with another race. The typical Papuan is small, thin-limbed, and physically weak. They are savage, bloodthirsty, and inveterate cannibals. They are also broken up into hostile tribes, speaking languages with a structural resemblance but wide verbal differences, owing to long isolation in fact, the people in one valley frequently had no communication with the people in another, except when at war with them.
