摘要：In May of 1993, a new well-preserved hominid skull was recovered from the Bapang (Kabuh) Formation of the Sangiran region, Central Jawa. In this paper, we provisionally describe the skull and compare it with Homo erectus crania from Jawa and China. The new skull possesses a series of characteristic features of Asian H. erectus in overall size and shape of the vault, the expression of various ectocranial structures, and other details. Among three geographical and chronological subgroups of Asian H. erectus , the new skull shows affinities with the Jawanese Early Pleistocene subgroup (specimens from the Sangiran and Trinil regions), as expected from its provenance.
