If We are to judge of the type of man from the I'M
plements he made. the earlier river-drift man was
of more advanced type than the later Mouste-
rian or Neanderthal man. The famous find at
Galley Hill of portions of a human skeleton in
the very ancient 100-foot terrace OF the Thames
has proved this to be true; for here have a
type of skull which is by means degraded and
associated with flint implements which show an
advanced civilization.
Thus the evidence of the fints and the evidence
of the human bones in entire agreement;
but the 1o0-foot terrace of the Thames at Upmn-
ster. in Essex rests upon and is therefore less
ancient than, the chalky boulder clay. and under
this boulder clay at Ipswich a modern type OF
man has been found! And yet not quite modern,

The finding of a modern type of below the
chalky boulder clay is, as has been suggested at
first sight rather pulling, but the dexterously
haked implements which have been found in the
older mddle-glacial gravels and the still much
older detritus bed below the red crag make the
discovery much more easy to understand The
outstanding fact about this discovery is that even
