- Abstract
IN his letter in NATURE of Aug. 8 on the pituitristic character of Egil Skallagrimson, Prof. Seligman has brought forward a remarkable subject which made a forcible impression on myself some years ago. His opinion of the Gardariki skull confirms the existence of pituitary disorder among the viking Scandinavians, but he does not allude to the very peculiar features which distinguish Egil's case from common clinical conditions, nor to the interesting heredity which the sagas record.
