0-U RAT7 OUTANG,> 
. The animal described by Br. Tyson was 
"brought from Angola in Africa. His body- 
was covered with coal-black hair ; not fine 
and short, intermixed, like the fur of brutes^ 
but all of a sort, like human hair: except 
that, on the upper lip and chin, as well as 
about tlie pubes, it was greyish and some- 
what difFcrent. The hair behind was ex- 
tremely thick i but, before, it was rather 
thin, and in some places almost bare : nor 
was there any hair on tlie face, hands,, or 
soles of the feet. The face was like that of 
-a man, but the forehead was larger, and the 
head more round. The upper and lower jaw 
were less prominent than those of the monkey.. 
The ears, the teeth, the breasts and navel, 
as well as the bending of the arms and legs, 
greatly resembled those of man ; and, in short,, 
the animal, at first view, seemed to present 
>a. figure entirely human ». 
. On a closer survey, however, several com- 
fparative imperfeiflions of form began to be 
manifest. The most obvious diiFerences were,., 
the flatness of the nose, lowucss of the fore- 
head,,,
