The next most obvious deformity was in their faces, almost all of which were prognathous , malformed about the ears, with large and protuberant noses, very furry or very bristly hair, and often strangely-coloured or strangely-placed eyes.

A huge brute with thick lips and prognathous jaw stood at her shoulder.

In order to discover the necessary area, Nature had given him an enormous prognathous jaw.

This malignant and terrible contortion, combined with the low forehead, blunt nose, and prognathous jaw gave the dead man a singularly simious and ape-like appearance, which was increased by his writhing, unnatural posture.

A facial diagram (polygon) consisting of linear and angular configurations determining the extent of facial prognathous , makes up the Bjork Jarabak's Analysis.4

Kipling describes the men as standing "in hierarchical order," and, exulting in his personal hoard of English words, he draws vocabulary items from a time earlier than his own Victorian period to speak of "feudal and prognathous Villeins" and "adscript serfs, holding the reversion of a scraped marrow-bone." With a happy question, "Aren't these beautiful words?" he even refers to "heriot," a word presumably acquired from fairly close study of the literature of his heroic, but long dead, Anglo-Saxon ancestors (135).

Particularly useful is the fact its prognathous recoil-spring guide rod gives the XD-E standoff capability, which means if the muzzle is pressed hard against a firm surface when the trigger is pulled, it won't go out of battery and fail to fire, as most autos are wont to do in such situations.

More often than not the popular images of the Irish as violent and backward people, produced and consumed extensively by both a British and later a Nativist American audience, depicted "Paddy as a half-simian peasant with sloping forehead, snub nose, and prognathous or projecting lower jaw akin to the facial features of an ape." The result, according to Curtis, of this racial construction helped exacerbate the tragedy of the Great Hunger by offering a psychic shield for those in power to justify a policy of removal, of cutting relief, and even celebration at the death of Ireland's poor at the very height of the Famine.
