BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES. 



The SoutJi AfAcan Journal of Science, being Oie Organ of the South 

 African Association for the Advancement of Science. Vol. VI. 

 No. 6. April 1910. Cape Town. Price Is. 



This number contains several short papers of considerable interest, 

 chiefly, of course, relative to South Africa. Among them is one 

 by Prof. E. H. L. Schwartz, on the Bearing of Recent Theories on 

 the Nature of the Earth's Interior upon the Question of Deep 

 Mining ; but the two papers which will appeal most to the general 

 reader are perhaps those by Rev. Father Xorton, on Bushmen and 

 their Relics near Modderpoort ; and on the Early Geography of 

 South Africa, and its Bearing on Bantu Ethnography. The first 

 paper \s illustrated by two plates reproducing native drawings: one, 

 in brown and white, appears to icpresent elands; and the other, in 

 whi''h tlie figures are black, repcsents cattle and other animals, and 

 a considerable number of natives in different positions. These are 

 not very dissimilar to reproductions of Lappish drawings which we 

 have Been. 



The second paper discusses the movements of natives, as indicated 

 by the maps of Thompson and Steedraan, published in ISliT and 

 1835 respectively.
