Abstract
IN the supplement to NATURE of Dec. 10 is an interesting contribution by Prof. Dart on “Mammoths and Man in the Transvaal.” The paper is valuable in directing attention to the importance of the Vaal River diamond gravel terraces, and the light which they will probably throw on early man in South Africa, and possibly on the wild animals associated with him. Whether Prof. Dart's conclusions are confirmed or not, the paper will result in more intensive work being done. Some of us who for years have been interested in the matter, have come to conclusions which differ from those of Prof. Dart.
