ture was the extraordinary size OF the
Uranium, or skull bone. Its capacity
was l,750 cubic centimeters, close to
that of the very largest normal white
skulls and almost third again as big
as that Of the average living Bushman.
Different measurements of the face
show a close approach to the propor-
tionG of the human infant face, as dis
tingl shed from the face of the adult.
Most st,~iking of all is the ratio between
the dir ensions of the Uranium and the
face. Jhis Is nearly five to one. In
the modern BuShman it is about three
to one and in the modern European
slightly less. But it is very close to the
ratio found in BuShman child. Dren-
nan calls this "a harmoniuS enlarge
ment of the infant skull" Careful eX-
animation OF the teeth also showed
striking infantile characters.
Detailed analysis, brennan says, shows
this pre-Bushman skull ultra a-modern
in many of its features, surprising the
European in almost every direction
Also, he points out, the skull of the
infant. or even embryo European is less
apelike in shape and proportion than
the adult European skull. This might
lead to the supposition that there lived
a superman in the African jungles un-
told centuries ago, except that the white
infant certainly is not really superior
to the white adult.
Now. brennan points out, the embry-
onic skull forms of man and the great
apes are much more alike than the
adult forms. Starting before birth from
something quite similar, they develop
along separate lines.
Thus, he says, 'it Is conceivable tina

skull is that it shows this peculiarity
much more strikingly than does the
living descendant of this type.
DR.. brennan brings up the principle
of "pedomorphosiS" in evolution, as ap-
piled to the human race In the ami
nal kingdom there is one very striking
example-the axolotl of Mexico, a spe-
cimen of which now is at the National
Geological Park. This is a salamander
which remains tadpole all its life, be-
coming sexually mature in this form.
But by suitable feeding in the labora-
tory it can be made to change into an
adult salamander fitted for life on land.
Every individual salamander, just like
every individual frog, must pass through
the tadpole stage in its infancy. The
curious aXolotl simply fails to make the
metamorphosiS and proceeds to grow
up in its baby form.
Some similar phenomenon in the ape
family, brennan believes, is shown by
the -Bushman skull to have been
partly responsible for the human race.
The young perhaps before birth, failed
to make the essential metamorphosis
into apes but went on growing and de-
veloping IN their foetal or infantile
form. That this principle Of pedo-
morphosis has had its place in the evo-
luton of higher animals, brennan be-
lieves, is as well established as the con-
trary principle of 'gerontomorph. IS, %
much better known, by which the Stages
in the evolution of the race from the
beginning are "telescoped" into the de-
yelopment Of the embryo.

elderly adult The most striking fea-

Human beings may be, in some re-
spectS at least, "grown-up bapleS Vi

Implication that the ancestral
human type was made up OF mature
morphological infants" OF some ancient
species of the great ape family Is COLI
tained in a report to the American AS
sociation of Physical AnthropologlslS 5
here, describing the discovery OF What

The discovery is that Of some pre-
BuShman skulls in Africa-foSSll re-
mains of a long-extinct race, supposeu
to have been ancestors OF the BuShnleli'
regarded by some anthropologistS as
among the most primitive types ol
modern man. 1t is reported III tle
current issue of the journal OF the as
sociation by Dr. M. r. brennan OF lne
University of Cape Town, who recently
restored the skulls. He does not re,
gard the pre-BuShman as an actual
link between man and his nearest
anthropoid relatives, but as possible
part of the bridge crossed on the way
to modern man. Much more prlmltlVe
human forms have been found, put

infantile man.

Bushman actually jumped the gap in
the manner indicated. 1t is submitted
rather that he is a good example of
the kind of bridge by which the chasm

Neanderthal to modern man. The
Neanderthal foetus and even the
young infant were probably not very far
from the corresponding stages in the
development of homo sapiens, so that
it is quite possible that by process

Bushman and Neanderthal man, he
