I. 6.] Blumen- bach divided mankind into five races, the Caucasian, the Mongolian, the Ethiopian, the American, and the Malay. Cuvier reduces the five to three, the Caucasian, the Mongolian, and the Ethiopian. Dr. Pritchard extended them to seven, the Iranian (the same as the Caucasian), the Turanian (the same as the Mongolian), the Native Americans, the Hotten, tots, the Negroes, the Papuas or Woolly-headed Polynesians, the Alfourou and Native Austral i ans. Dr. Latham divides mankind into three varieties, Mongol ide, Atlantide, and Japetide.

The earliest tools were flaked stones and cracked bones. All flaked stones and cracked bones, however, may not be tools. Some of the flaked stones, for exam-
