SIDE-VIEW OF A PREHISTORIC HUMAN SKULL DISCOVERED IN IQ2I 

 IN BROKEN HILL CAVE, NORTHERN RHODESIA 



Very striking are the prominent eyebrow ridges and the broad massive face 

 The skull looks less domed than that of modern man, but its cranial capacity is 

 far above the lowest human limit. The teeth are interesting in showing marked 

 rotting or "caries," hitherto unknown in prehistoric skulls. In all probability 

 the Rhodesian man was an African representative of the extinct Neanderthal 

 species hitherto known only from Europe.

THE UPPER PLEISTOCENE, PERHAPS 25.OOO YEARS AGO 



They seemed to have lived for a while contemporaneously with the Nean- 

 derthal Men .and there may have been interbreeding. Some Cromagnards 

 probably survive, but the race as a whole declined, and there was re- 

 population of Europe from the East.
