PALEOLITHIC RACES 377 



majority of French and German geologists cannot find evidence 

 of more than three. Pending further investigation we may 

 adhere provisionally to the classification of Prof. Penck (antea, 

 vol. iii. p. 326). 



The first attempt of recent years to bring the subdivisions of 

 the glacial epoch into relationship with the several stages of 

 Palaeolithic industry was made by Prof. Maurice Hoernes, who 

 found a comfortable pigeon-hole for each of the industrial stages 

 recognised by him in each of the three genial episodes of Penck. 

 The Magdalenian, as the latest, naturally found its place in the 

 third of these episodes, and the Solutrean in the second ; there 

 remain then the Chellean, Acheulean, and Mousterian, three 

 industries and only one pigeon-hole ; it was contended, however, 

 that these were not entitled to separate recognition, and in 

 opposition to the views of Mortillet they were lumped together 

 into a single industry, docketed with the name of Chelleo- 

 Mousterian, and inserted in the first episode. 1 Thus we are 

 presented with the following scheme : — 



IV Glacial episode 



3 Genial ,, Magdalenian or Reindeer period. 



Ill Glacial „ 



2 Genial ,, Solutrean or Mammoth period. 



II Glacial „ 



1 Genial „ Chelleo-Mousterian period. 



I Glacial „ 



This correlation is so obviously opposed to the best estab- 

 lished facts in archaeology that it now possesses a merely 

 historical interest ; nevertheless the work in which it is set forth 

 is still of great value as a store of information admirably 

 arranged. 2 



The next essay we owe to Prof. Penck ; it is generalised in 

 the following table : —

1 As we have already pointed out, M. Comment's investigations have com- 

 pletely confirmed Mortillet's views.
