Abstract This paper studies the morphological variability of the principal masculine series of the Iberian Peninsula from the Middle to the Modern Era. This analysis was based on the thirteen most important measurements of the neuro- and splanchnocranium. The method used was a univariated comparison by means of graphic techniques and diverse statistical tests. The knowledge of each population studied, its dating, geographic location, cultural aspects, as well as the possible influence of diverse microevolutionary factors was fundamental in the interpretation of the results. This paper is a continuation of an earlier study on the Epipaleolithic-Ancient Age populations of the Iberian Peninsula (Garralda and Mesa, 1984).
