 belongs, equally with the Palaeolithic, succeeded 

 the latter in point of time ; between them a 

 considerable lengthened period intervened ; they 

 had nothing in common with each other, the break 

 was complete ; their implements differed, as did 

 most of the animals they hunted and upon which they fed, several 

 of which are extinct, while others have disappeared altogether
