kins's "Early Man in Britain," p. 116.) But even this demands vast glaciers to the north of this supposed submergence to produce the icebergs. The weight of authority, however, is in favor of the glaciers. (Geikie's "Prehistoric Europe," p. 175.) (27) Haywood's Heer's "Primeval World of Switzerland," p. 200. (28) "Prehistoric Europe," p. 261. It is no longer a question that there was at least one mild period separating two periods of cold in Europe. See Lubbock's "Prehistoric Times," p. 316; Dawkins's "Early Man in Britain," pp. 115-120; Lyell's "Antiquity of Man," pp. 282-285., Dana's "Manual of Geology," first edition, p. 561; Haywood's Heer's "Primeval World of Switzerland," Vol. II, p. 203; Wallace's "Island Life," p. 114; Croll's "Climate and Time." Mr. Geikie, in his works, "The Great Ice Age" and "Prehistoric Europe," maintains there were several warm interglacial epochs. (29) Wright. (30) Morgan's "Ancient Society," p. 29. (31) Geikie's "Prehistoric Europe," p. 365. Morgan's "Ancient Society," p. 39. (32) Rau's "Early Man in Europe," p. 14. (33) "Primitive Industry," p. 485. (34) Lubbock's "Prehistoric Times," 384. (35) Geikie's "Prehistoric Europe," chap. ix. Most geologists suppose there was a general depression of the region below the sea level, or so as to form inland lakes, and that the loess was thus deposited, as perhaps it is depositing at the present time in the lakes of Switzerland. (Wright.) (36) Lubbock's "Prehistoric Times," p. 423. (37) Evans's "Ancient Stone Implements," p. 621. (38) _Pop. Science Monthly,_ Oct., 1883. (39) Dawkins's "Ear. Man in Brit.," p. 163. (40) Wright's "Studies in Science and Religion," p. 278. See also British Association Report, 1882, p. 602. (41) Lubbock's "Prehistoric Times," p. 356. (42) Abbott's "Primitive Industry." (43) Dawkins's "Early Man in Britain," p. 172. (44) Wright. (45) Quatrefages's "Human Species," p. 307. (46) "Human Species," p. 305. (47) Ibid., p. 307. (48) Quatrefage's "Human Species," p. 306. (49) "Early Man in Britain," p. 173. (50) Ibid., p. 233. (51) We do not give any estimate in years as to this antiquity in this chapter. (52) We must remember that this age is also variously called the Quaternary, Pleisto
