Old Stone Age Implements
Found In New Mexico

Cambridge. Mass. - Possibility
thar ancient America had an Old
Stone age" is raised again with the
discovery I'M New Mexico of crude
stnne axes strangely resembling
hndiwork of Eurspe's primitive Old
Stone age men.
That the unknown Americans,
who made the crude implements,
were net necessarily IS ancient as
Europeans Of similar culture is
plainly stated by DR.. Kirk Bryan of
Harvard university, who found a
number Of tools in IN old quarry in
Rio Arriha county.
Discussing significance Of the pre-
historic tools, in Science, Doctor
Bryan also says that no direct re-
latiouship with European types is
implied. The tools do, however. rep
resent q heretofore unrecognized
type Of ancient inhahitant Of this
continent, possibly preceding known
Indian tribes.
