Having a broad, short face with a relatively wide face-to-height ratio.
From Greek 'brachys' (short) + 'prosopon' (face) + '-ic' (characterized by), used in anthropology to describe facial proportions.
Anthropologists use measurements of faces to study human populations—and brachyprosopic describes faces that are wider and rounder compared to their height, a feature that varies across different populations!
