Thursday, September 5. 
Mr. J. Rem Moir.—The antiquity of man in East Anglia (10.0). 
The earliest artifacts of East Anglia are found in the Bone Bed of Pliocene 
age, beneath the Red Crag, and can be divided, possibly, into five groups 
of different ages. Each earlier than the Crag, the most ancient examples 
of the succeeding Paleolithic epoch are found in the Cromer Forest Bed. 
Lower Acheulian implements are rare in East Anglia, and the exact geo- 
logical horizon to which they should be referred remains uncertain. 
Possibly it may be placed in the Middle Glacial deposits : such as occur 
between the Norwich Brickearth, and the Kimmeridgic Chalky Boulder 
Clay, at Corton, near Lowestoft. The Upper Acheulian and Early 
Mousterian horizons in East Anglia are well known, and are found between 
the Kimmeridgic and the Upper Chalky Boulder Clays, the late Mousterian 
and Aurignacian cultures occur between the latter Boulder Clay and the 
Brown Boulder Clay of Norfolk. ‘The Solutrian and Magdalenian phases 
in East Anglia seem to be associated with post-glacial times. Neolithic 
implements are found either upon the surface, or in the deeper deposits of 
the Fenland.

AFTERNOON. 
Prof. D. ArKk1inson.— Saxon site at Caistor, near Norwich (2.0). 
Miss D. A. E. Garrop—The Mousterian people of Palestine ; their 
culture (3.0). 
In the caves of the Wady Mughara, Mount Carmel, skeletal remains of 
a number of individuals were found associated with flint implements of 
Levalloisian type, and with animal bones pointing to warm, moist climatic 
conditions—in contrast with the temperate woodland fauna of the overlying 
Mousterian levels inthe same site. It is suggested that the Carmel skeletons 
date from the end of the Riss-Wurm interglacial, and are therefore approxi- 
mately of the same age as those of Ehringsdorf and Taubach, and older 
than the Neandertal remains of La Chapelle-aux-Saints, Spy, Gibraltar, etc. 
Mr. THEeoporRE D. McCown and Sir Arruur KeitTH, F.R.S.—The 
Mousterian people of Palestine : their anatomy (3.30). 
The human remains from the Wady Mughara caves near Atlit, Palestine, 
comprise three relatively complete skeletons and the more fragmentary
