content: This series includes notes, correspondence, photographs, and illustrations related to Hrdlička's study of early hominids. Hrdlička traveled widely and often to examine and measure remains attributed to ancient man and to the sites where the fossils were found. He also met and corresponded with many leading researchers into the origins of man, including Raymond Dart, Davidson Black, Eugene Dubois, Sir Arthur Keith, and Sir Arthur Smith-Woodward.

See Series 3: Correspondence, "Dart, Raymond"; "Black, Davidson"; "Dubois, Eugene"; "Keith, Arthur Sir"; and "Smith Woodward, Arthur Sir" for additional materials. There is also information on Hrdlička's studies of early man in many other series.
