Page provides raw skeletal, cranial, dental metrics from 648 modern humans including Australian Aborigines, Southern Chinese, Northern Chinese, Romano-Britons, Europeans. Australian Aborigines datasets cover 341 postcranial, 1232 Abbie anthropometrics, 1439 Birdsell males, 917 females across regions. Birdsell data show geographic variation supporting multiple biologically distinct founder populations colonizing Australia. Terminal Pleistocene Australians from Kow Swamp, Coobool Creek robust with homogeneity. Holocene Australian skeletons underwent size reduction. Nacurrie 1 bears cranial mark matching ancient Javan hominins. Chinese Neolithic to recent metrics from 237 adults across sites. Tohoku modern Japanese crania number 59 with known age, sex, birthplace. Chimpanzee, bonobo metrics from 171 adults benchmark species distances. Macaque data from 200 across 13 species gauge primate variation. H. floresiensis LB1 CT scans document pre-damage primitive morphology. H. erectus, H. habilis craniometrics from Asia, Africa compare floresiensis affinities. Datasets enable racial morphological contrasts unexplained by culture alone.
