Text Appearing Before Image:
pe,mentioned above, were all found in cavern or rock-shelter deposits.These cannot be definitely correlated with river-drift and loess;hence we cannot measure the time that separates the man of Spyfrom Homo heidelhergensis. Judging from somatic charactersalone, the time separating the two must have been considerable. The Mousterian industry which is found associated with Homoprimigenius occurs in deposits that mark the close of the middleQuaternary, and also in cavern deposits corresponding to the baseof the upper Quaternary. It belongs to the transition from the Rissglacial period to the Eiss-AViirm interglacial period. At Wild-kirchli, in the Alps, it is frankly interglacial, a station that probablybelongs to the close of the Mousterian epoch. The position of the Mauer lower jaw near the bottom of the olddiluvium, and its association with the remains of Elephas antiquus Spy approximates more closely the Mauer type than does Krapina.

Text Appearing After Image:
Homo primigenius, or mousteriensis, from the Cavern of Le Moustier (Dordogne). (Photographs by O. Hauser.) ANTIQUITY OP MAN IN EUEOPE^—MACCURDY. 573 and Rhinoceros efrusciis^ suggest for it a place at least as far back asthe lower Quaternary. But the industry of the lower Quaternaryis eolithic, the evolution of the Chellean type not taking place untilthe middle Quaternary. One would expect to find Mafflean indus-try in the horizon of Homo heidelhergensis and this, according to thelatest report, is what Professor Schoetensack has succeeded in doing. During the sunniier of 1908, Herr O. Hauser found part of ahuman skeleton, including the skull, in the classic station of LeMoustier itself. This station, belonging to a wonderful series ofpaleolithic sites in the valley of Vezere, France, has been knownsince the explorations of Lartet and Christy, 1863-1865. Hauservery wisely delayed the removal of the human remains from thecavern of Le Moustier until after the arrival of a party of Germ
