Crania Aegyptiaca, or, Observations on Egyptian ethnography derived from anatomy, history and the monuments / by Samuel George Morton.
A mid-nineteenth-century ethnological treatise by American physician Samuel George Morton, published in London and Philadelphia in 1844, comparing ancient Egyptian skulls with anatomy and monuments. Its pictures are plain black-line profile drawings of heads, copied from Egyptian wall paintings and reliefs, that a designer might use for quiet diagrammatic line study, profile silhouettes, or archival scientific figures.
