[648] 'Besonders fiel uns der Unterschied zwischen den im Gebirge, ahnlich den Wolfen lebenden Yampays und Tontos ... und den von vegetabilischen Stoffen sich nahrenden Bewohnern des Colorado-Thales auf, indem erstere nur kleine ha.s.sliche Gestalten mit widrigem tuckischem Ausdruck der Physiognomie waren, die anderen dagegen wie lauter Meisterwerke der schopferischen Natur erschienen.' _Mollhausen_, _Tagebuch_, p. 384.

[649] The Navajos are 'of good size, nearly six feet in height, and well proportioned; cheek-bones high and prominent, nose straight and well shaped; hair long and black; eyes black; ... feet small; lips of moderate size; head of medium size and well shaped; forehead not small but retreating.' _Lethermann_, in _Smithsonian Rept._, 1855, p. 288.

'Fine looking, physically.' 'Most symmetrical figure, combining ease, grace and power, and activity.' And the Comanches 'about five feet ten inches in height, with well proportioned shoulders, very deep chest, and long, thin, but muscular arms.' _Cremony's Apaches_, pp. 49, 305, 15.

The Mojave 'men are tall, erect, and finely proportioned. Their features are inclined to European regularity; their eyes large, shaded by long lashes.' The Cuchans are 'a n.o.ble race, well formed, active and intelligent.' _Whipple_, in _Pac. R. R. Rept._, vol. iii., pp. 110, 114.

The Navajos are distinguished 'by the fullness and roundness of their eyes.' _Whipple, Ewbank, and Turner's Rept._, in _Pac. R. R.

ii., p. 15. The Comanches 'que da un aspecto bien particular a estas naciones, es la falta completa de cejas, pues ellos se las arrancan; algunos tienen una poca barba.' _Berlandier and Thovel_, _Diario_, p.

253. The Yumas 'if left to their natural state, would be fine looking,'

but the Hualpais 'were squalid, wretched-looking creatures, with splay feet, large joints and diminutive figures ... features like a toad's....

They present a remarkable contrast to our tall and athletic Mojaves.'

The Navajos are 'a fine looking race with bold features.' 'The Mojaves are perhaps as fine a race of men physically, as there is in existence.'

iii., p. 184. And Lieut. Mollhausen, who frequently goes into ecstasies over the splendid figures of the lower Colorado people, whom he calls the personification of the ancient G.o.ds of the Romans and Greeks, says further that they are 'grosse, schon gewachsene Leute,' and describes their color as 'dunkelkupferfarbig.' Of the women he adds 'Ganz im Gegensatze zu den Mannern sind die Weiber der Indianer am Colorado durchgangig klein, untersetzt und so d.i.c.k, da.s.s ihr Aussehen mitunter an's komische granzt.' Comparing the Hualapais with the Mojaves he writes 'auf der einen Seite die unbekleideten, riesenhaften und wohlgebildeten Gestalten der Mohaves ... auf der andern Seite dagegen die im Vergleich mit erstern, zwergahnlichen, hagern.... Figuren der Wallpays, mit ihren verwirrten, struppigen Haaren, den kleinen, geschlitzten Augen und dem falschen, geha.s.sigen Ausdruck in ihren Zugen.'
