J. THEORETIC CORRELATION OF QUATERNARY GEOLOGY, ARCHEOLOGY, AVD 

 MAMMALIAN PALEONTOLOGY, ACrORDING TO OUR KNOWLEDGE OF tPPJ 



BY OSBORN AND REEDS 



The diagram, figure 13, is a summary of Section I and Section II of 

 the present contribution, in which, according to our actual knowledge, 

 the (1) stages of human life, of (2) human races, of (3) archeology, 

 are correlated with (4) theoretic succession of plant life, (5) the more 

 or less theoretic glacial and interglacial stages, (6) the actual river 

 terraces, and (7) the changes in sealevel. 



In the center of the diagram the vertical dotted line represents the 

 modified Penck-Briickner estimates of the advances and retreats of the 

 four glaciations in the Alpine region, with intervals between them ex- 

 pressing the relative duration of the three interglacial periods. 



To the left of the center is the theoretic correlation of these Glacial 

 I-IV and Interglacial 1-3 epochs in the whole Northern Hemisphere, 

 the Holaectic region of the zoologists.
