First Age-The Pthecanthropus Erectus Who Was
Half Man and Half Ape

His brute-like face seems destitute
OF human intelligence, but he al
ready exercises a certain domination
over the other animals. He slouches
forward like an ape, but he walks
erectly on his feet and not on all
tours.
He has learned to use fragments
OF stones with which to cut down
fruits, to make a passage for him
self through the forests and to de-
fend himself. He is a vegetarian and
does not know the use of fire. He
lived at the end OF the tertiary
period. several hundred thousand
years ago.
Next in point Of time comes the
Heidelberg man, who lived at the be.
ginning Of the Quaternary geological
period. A whole lower jaw bone,
with full set of teeth, of this pre-
historic man was found by Professor
Mauer, Of Heidelberg. This man is
said TO show a great advance over

We find a juxtaposition and collab.
grafton of several types in the ear

the man found at Grenelle, in France,
it is said there flowed the blood OF
three prehistoric types. Each OF
these marked an advance on its
predecessor in the art of fashioning
tools and weapons.
The Grenelle man had mastered
the art Of throwing the spear. This
was a great step forward In human
progress, for it enabled tribe to
fight at considerable distance and
to crush any tribe not SO armed.
The man OF Combe-Capelle repre-.
sents another great stage Of prog
ress. This statue shows him using
scraper, which proves him to have
been the ancestor of all the carpen
tiers who have lived since then. He
wears bears skin, for he lived in
the glacial period.
The scientists who have made
these reconstructions have taken the
peculiar view of regarding the Mean
derthal skull as belonging to later
age than several of those already

@ ClENCE and art have contrlved
-, to show us the earliest ances-
tors Of the human race in the
form Of sculpture.
A Belgian sculptor, Louis Mascre,
has made a remarkable series OF
statues OF the. principal types of pre-.
historic man. a distinguished
scientific archseologist, A. Rutot
gave the sculptor the information
and models on which he based his
work.
These statues were entirely based
on the bones and other remains ac.
tually found of the prehistoric men
represented. Here we may see our
ancestors who were not quite hu.

human, and so on up to the man OF
10000 years ago, who could reason
about as we'll az the average man OF
today. They may be described as
the seyen ages OF prehistoric man,
for seven principal periods are rep
resented.
The first statue OF the series in
order OF time represents the "pithe-
erectus," the ape-mau,
who walked erect. His remains were
discovered by DR.. Dubois IN Java.

The statue of the Galley Hill man
shows him holding in his right hand
stone knife of form that has ac-
tually been found. Around his neck
hangs reserve weapon In this
latter feature the scientists trace
the beginning OF the custom OF wear
ing ornaments. In later ages this
was to develop into the wearing of
necklaces made OF stones or the
teeth OF lions, wolves and other ami,
mails. These are very commonly
found IN prehistoric graves.
Later the stones and animals teeth
were replaced by purely ornamental
objects, such as pieces of metal and
colored clay. Still later these OBJ
jects were worn by women also, and
finally, after many ages, by them
alone. To-day the society woman,
wearing her superb pearl necklace,
is perpetuating the custom of this
