Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Antiquity of Man N 0 subject, of late years, has so much engrossed the atten tion of geologists as the antiquity of the human race. The interest was greatly increased by the publication of Sir Charles Lyell's Antiquity of Man. This work called the attention of the public to the subject, and so great became the interest that many volumes and memoirs have been added to the list, discussing the question in various ways, and, for the most part, in, such a manner as to add fresh interest and throw more light on the subject. The scientific men were slow to take advantage of the discoveries continually being made of the bones and works of man found in caves and associated with the remains of extinct animals. It is probable, even at this late day, there would not have been so much discussion of this subject had not Sir Charles Lyell lent the weight of his great name to it. Educated men, everywhere, began to doubt the correctness of Archbishop Usher's chronology, and so complete has been the revolution of opinion that it is almost impossible to find an intelligent man who would limit the period of man's existence to years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Antiquity of Man In accumulating the material and facts on which this book is based the author has become deeply indebted to many men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks on the Antiquity and Nature of Man: In Reply to the Recent Work of Sir Charles Lyell In attempting to reply to the speculations contained in "Lyell's Antiquity of Man," the author of the following pages has endeavoured to state the arguments which Sir Charles employs, and the facts on which they rest, as clearly and as fairly as he possibly could, so that any one perusing the present publication may have the whole question fully before him. He has not felt himself called on to notice disquisitions, however elaborate, which have no bearing either on the antiquity or on the nature of man, and he has seen no necessity for discussing facts which he was prepared to admit. All that he conceived to be required of him, was to specify the questions under debate, with the evidence brought forward on either side. His treatise, therefore, is brief, because the arguments adduced by Sir Charles, when separated from the mass of incongruous matter in which they are embedded, are but few in number, and do not require any lengthened discussion in order to enable an intelligent reader to form an opinion in regard to them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Antiquity of Man in Europe: Being the Munro Lectures, 1913 Since I last essayed to review the geological evidence of the antiquity of man, the literature of the subject has greatly increased, and the most ardent student must find it hard to keep account of the constantly widening circle of knowledge. The research of the past twenty years has certainly cleared up much that was doubtful and obscure, and brought to light many interesting details which enable us to form a more adequate conception of the early history of our race than was previously possible. These later investigations, however, have not in any respect shaken the general conclusions arrived at twenty years ago, but, on the contrary, have served only to strengthen and confirm them. As. the data multiply, it becomes more and more evident that the early history of our race is intimately connected with that of the Ice Age; and the conviction deepens that the period which witnessed the advent of man in Europe was distinguished by extraordinary climatic changes.

This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Essays on the Antiquity and Races of Man The popular but inaccurate expression of this scientific conviction is that man is descended from the monkeys, but that a link has been lost in the chain of descent: the famous missing link. In a loose way this statement re ects modern scientific Opinion; but it certainly is partly erroneous. Probably not a, single living authority maintains today that man is descended from any species of monkey now living. What students during the past sixty years have more and more come to be convinced of, was already foreshadowed by Darwina namely that man and the apes are both descended from a common ancestor. This common ancestor may be described as a primitive Primate. Who differed in a good many details both from the monkeys and from man. And who has long since become extinct. The Situation may be clarified by two diagrams. The first diagram represents the inaccurate popular View which puts the monkey at the bottom of the line of descent, man at the top, and the missing link in the middle of the straight line. The illogicality ef believing that our origin occurred in this manner is apparent as soon as one re ects that according to this scheme the monkey at the beginning and man at the end of the line still survive, whereas the missing link, which is supposed to have connected them, has become extinct.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Ice Man: And Its Relation to the Antiquity of Man Pointed out that the sub-aerial beds of the English Channel districts were the equivalents of the glacial deposits elsewhere; and that the broad alluvia of our more southerly rivers, such as the Severn, the Fal, the Dart, and the Thames, belong to a period prior to the great submergence, during which the high-level marine drifts of Wales were accumulated. In other words he showed that these river-gravels could not be referred to post-glacial times. Within more recent years a modification of Mr. Godwin-austen's view has been energetically put forward by Mr. W. Boyd Dawkins, who is of opinion that our palaeolithic deposits belong to a time sub sequent to the great submergence just referred to. He holds that man and the extinct mammalia lived in the south of England at a period when Scotland, Wales, and the northern districts of England were covered with ice and snow, and when our summers were warm and our winters very severe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Types of Man Age the length of this period is estimated provisionally at about years. On entering the Late Paleolithic Period the stone implements used by Europeans are seen to be of a more massive and rather rougher type of workmanship. Animals were then living in Central and South Europe which have disappeared - the reindeer and the mammoth. The period just named falls within the latter part of the geologists' Pleistocene Period. The Late Paleolithic Period was preceded by the early paleolithic period, one of very great but uncertain length. It lies within the glacial period, which was broken by at least three temperate intervals. The Early Paleolithic Period probably covers the last two of these intervals. Its duration is variously estimated from to years. At the beginning of this period the dominant race of Europe was the Neanderthal type of man at its close Europeans were of the modern type.
