HUNTING FOR FOOD IN THE LATER ICE AGE
From the painting by Ferdinand Cormon
To this material concerning Drift Man, scientifically vouched for, coming from Drift strata that have certainly never been disturbed, other countries have hitherto made no equal contributions really enlarging our view. Yet the numerous places where palæolithic—that is, only rudely chipped—implements of flint, such as were doubtless used by Drift Man, have been found must not remain unmentioned here. We know of them in Northern, Central, and Southern France, in the South of England, in the loess at Thiede, near Brunswick, and in Lower Austria, Moravia, Hungary, Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal, North Africa, and Russia.
IMPLEMENTS OF THE STONE AGE
The upper illustrations show handles of celt or stone-cutting instruments and method of hafting; the lower picture is that of a handmill of sandstone.
