V.—The Human Skull found near Southport

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The author of a paper on the above subject read before the Anthropological Section of the British Association at Southport having made the startling assertion that, “In immediate proximity (to where the skull was found) were numerous bones of the Irish Elk and Reindeer,” I feel it incumbent on me to relate the facts of the case. Unfortunately I was not at the meeting when the paper was read, so could not contradict the statement on the spot.
