In the long course Of the unwritten history
of the six races mentioned above, extending at
least from 100000 years B. C. down, say, to
5000 B. c., all tools were made Of stone and
bone Except perishable ones Of wood); and
then, with apparent suddenness, came the use
Of bronze, and the Bronze Age opened.
At one leap man sprang ahead further
than he had previously advanced in a thou
sand centuries. The control of metal was
the motive power that shot him onward. Two
or three thousand years later he made another
leap, through the discovery of ways to utilize
iron in place Of copper and bronze for making
tools and weapons, and so the Iron Age opened.
We are not out Of the Iron Age yet But our
progress is no longer dependent upon mastery
over certain materials; it is governed by the
ability to analyZe and control forces which
were not put into our hands TO begin with, and
whose very existence was unknown to the an
eestral races.
II one will enter the National Museum with
these and similar thoughts to lead him he will
find wonderful light shining out Of those
endless rows Of cabinets and cases. To trace,
by the study of the actual objects under his
eyes, the progress in the shaping Of arrow
heads, stone axes and chisels, that consumed
the efforts Of his prehistoric forbears during
hundreds of centuries, will prove fascinating
occupation. He will see how it required q
period of time longer than the entire history
of Rome, or Greece, or Egypt, simply to trans
form the rude Chellean flint knives and
scrapers into the exquisite craving tools OF
stone and bone used by the MagdaleneanS

progress.
