Abstract
Two additional cranial specimens from Vindija cave, Croatia, are descr ibed. One specimen is a zygomatic, providing the first information abo ut the midfacial anatomy of the Vindija hominids. The other specimen i s a frontal/supraorbital torus fragment. Both specimens exhibit morpho logy typically associated with Neandertals. They derive from level G, and provide further indication that both the level G, and G, hominids at Vindija represent Neandertals. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
