Comparing the Skulls

OOlllpdlIllS lll6 OKullS
IN addition to the skulls found in
l. 1929 and 1880, the survey has two
fragments of skulls found in the
Western Hills in 1923.
Besides what is to be learned from
new finds" in the future, much is
to be learned by comparison of the
four skulls from the Western Hills
with each other and with the other
two fossils of ancient man, the Java
Ape-Man, found at Trinil, Java, and
the Piltdown Man, found at Pitt
down, Sussex, England.
The work of comparing Picking
Man with these other two, already
has begun. This is extremely inn
portant because there were such
wide differences between Java Man
and Piltdown Man.
Peking Man seems to resemble
Piltdown Man far more than he
does Java Man.
1t is this fact which is leading
anthropologists to conclude that
Piltdown Man represents more
nearly the type of man which ex-
listed 100000 years ago.
In other words, it is now thought
that the man of 100000 years ago
was tar more advanced that was
thought previously.
zone of the most remarkable
points of contrast between the
brain-case of the Java Man and the
Peking Man is the phenomenal
thickness of the latter says DR.. G.
Elliot Smith of the University of
London.
I'm the case of the skull of the
Peking Man, the thickness of the
bone approximates that of the Pitt
down skull"

THE man Of 100000 years ago
l. had a thicker skull than the
man Of today. That extra thick
ness, perhaps, was wise measure
upon the part of nature in a day
when clubs and rocks were coming
into fashion as weapons.
This is one of many interesting
facts which have been brought to
light by the study Of the Peking
Man whose million-year-old skull
was found in the Western Hills be-
hind Peking.
Anthropologists are watching
eagerly to see what news may come
forth from those ancient hills. For

With the finding of the skull Of
Picking Man in December. 1929.
Additional fossils since have been
discovered and it is hoped that the
future may yield yet more impor-

The work is being carried on by q
branch of the Chinese Geological
Survey under the direction of DR..
Davidson Black. an American ana
tomist now at the Peking Union
Medical college. Funds for the work
have been provided by the Rookie

The discovery Of the skull in De-
cember, 1929, was followed by that
of a series of fragments which fit
together into the greater part of
another skull. This second dis
covery was made in July, 1880.
The second skull seems to be that
of an individual about ten years
older than the first Picking Man,
whose age was placed at about Is.
