Abstract
A LARGE part of a recent Memoir of the National Museum, Melbourne (No. 13, 1943), is devoted to the question of the authentic antiquity of certain human artefacts and skeletal remains that have been recorded from various parts of Australia over a long series of years. The available evidence in relation to each find is carefully analysed, and a judicial summing up leads, in most cases, to a verdict of 'not proven'.
