Babylonians and Assyrians, Life and Customs In palæontological circles the report that the monster's death was occasioned by the consumption of too much seed-cake is regarded as going far to prove that our neolithic ancestors were not without their sentimental side. Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 150, March 15, 1916 From this fact he seriously argued that a great mistake had been made in the relative ages of the neolithic and palaeolithic periods, and that the former must necessarily be the older of the two. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 2, Slice 4 "Aram, Eugene" to "Arcueil" He could easily have bought as many genuine flint celts and arrow-heads and knives as he needed, had his aim been to prove his sites to be neolithic. The Clyde Mystery a Study in Forgeries and Folklore Many of the neolithic relics show that the people who used them had reached a tolerably high level of civilization. A History of the Japanese People From the Earliest Times to the End of the Meiji Era On the one hand we have that long period of sterile time, 15,000 years, for the stage of neolithic man, and on the other the vast material progress of the past three hundred years. The Necessity of Atheism But the neolithic deposit was not the most striking find.

Hunter Patrol This evidence of the use of metal tools is a great point of Dr. Munro, against such speculative minds as deem Dumbuck and Langbank “neolithic,” that is, of a date long before the Christian era. The Clyde Mystery a Study in Forgeries and Folklore Particularly interesting are earthenware images obtained from these neolithic sites. A History of the Japanese People From the Earliest Times to the End of the Meiji Era Our story takes us back some twelve thousand years to neolithic man.

Science in Arcady Before ending this chapter, I have still to make good a promise to say something about the neolithic men of western Europe. Anthropology I may remark that Rütimeyer has shown that several wild mammals in Switzerland since the neolithic period have had their dentition and, I think, general size slightly modified. Alfred Russel Wallace: Letters and Reminiscences, Vol. 1 Another and very different form of thunderbolt is the belemnite, a common English fossil often preserved in houses in the west country with the same superstitious reverence as the neolithic hatchets. Falling in Love With Other Essays on More Exact Branches of Science Curio cabinets, inclosed whatnots, museum cases in which to display fragments from the neolithic age, and glass-faced sarcophagi for dead butterflies. Love Conquers All The Euskarian neolithic population of Britain—a dark white race, like the modern Basques—had settlements in Sussex, at least in the coast district between the Downs and the sea. Science in Arcady Their pits are of squarer shape than the neolithic ones, but otherwise similar. Anthropology It is well known that in the neolithic period the dead in certain parts of England were buried under mounds of not circular but elongated shape. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders There is something very fascinating about the naïf belief that the neolithic axe is a genuine unadulterated thunderbolt. Falling in Love With Other Essays on More Exact Branches of Science There are English names among us, of course, such as Gurd, which is Gurth as pronounced by a Norman; but it is understood that we are neolithic chiefly on the distaff side.

Science in Arcady Or did the neolithic invasion, which came from the south, wipe out the lot? Anthropology The megalithic tombs of Brittany all belong to the late neolithic period, and contain tools and arrow-heads of flint, small ornaments of gold, callaïs, and pottery which includes among its forms the bell-shaped cup. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders We have now not only recovered the earlier dynasties, but neolithic and palaeolithic Egypt emerges from the primitive cemeteries. Recent Developments in European Thought Those characteristics, for which neither Celt nor Roman, Teuton nor Dane, as we know them now, is remarkable, I set to the score of the neolithic race, whose physical features are equally enduring. In a Green Shade A Country Commentary Of agriculture first, because the bronze hatchet enabled men to make such openings in the forest as neolithic man had never ever dreamed of. Science in Arcady Down at this level, it appeared, the neolithic worker had found the layer of the best flint. Anthropology To judge by the remains found in the sesi they belong entirely to the neolithic period. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders The historic life of Gezer has been minutely revealed by Macalister, with the strata of seven cities reaching back to the neolithic age. Recent Developments in European Thought In many cases, as where invaders with weapons of bronze or iron conquered the neolithic peoples, the higher civilization completely destroyed the lower civilization, or barbarism, with which it came in contact. African and European Addresses To the neolithic hunter, herdsman, and villager this progress from the stone to the metal axe probably seemed at first a mere substitution of an easier for a more difficult material. Science in Arcady All these things did the neolithic peoples sooner or later; so that it would not be strange if palæolithic man withdrew in their favour, because he could not compete. Anthropology This is perhaps the reason why the first great inroads of neolithic man into the Mediterranean left it quite untouched, although it lay directly in the path of tribes immigrating into Europe from Africa. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders Chips of Knife or razor blades, and sometimes the cores from which these were flaked, may be picked up on any Bronze Age site, and even on Thessalian neolithic settlements. How to Observe in Archaeology B. 3.—During the neolithic stage of their development the Ugrians were acquainted with but one metal, gold, and some of their stone weapons and implements are thus ornamented.

Anthropology The earliest neolithic remains of Italy, Crete, and the Ægean seem to have no parallel in Malta, and the first inhabitants of whom we find traces in the island were builders of megalithic monuments. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders It is hardly contended that the neolithic age could have been more than four or five thousand years ago. Creation and Its Records However, if we accept with them the date 3300 B.C. as the date of the First dynasty, then in 4200 B.C. the Egyptians were just emerging from a neolithic state.

The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication — Volume 1 Yet these neolithic American societies got along for hundreds and perhaps thousands of years, they respected seed-time and harvest, they bred and they maintained a grotesque and terrible order. The Pivot of Civilization It is true that no metal has been found in them, and that we can therefore speak of them as belonging to the neolithic age. Rough Stone Monuments and Their Builders The "stations" of neolithic man closely follow each other on the terraces which now mark the shores of the old lakes. Mutual Aid; a factor of evolution That these mines were worked by neolithic man it is impossible to doubt, but he may not have discovered or first used them.
