Having a relatively short or broad face, with facial width greater than normal proportions.
From Greek 'brachy-' meaning short combined with 'facial' from Latin 'facies' meaning face, used in anthropology and physical descriptions.
Different human populations show varying degrees of brachyfacial characteristics—this is why faces look different around the world, and scientists study these patterns to understand human migration and adaptation histories!
