Burma Expedition Makes New Discovery
EAST SEEN AS "MANKIND'S CRADLE”
PHILADELPHIA, —Pur- ther evidence that South- eastern Asia was the most Ekely "eradle of mankind,” was presented before the autumn meeting of the American Philosophical Society.
Helmut Deterra, formerly of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, gave a prelimin- ry report of his expedition to Burma under a grant from the Philosophient Socicly, asserting that tools and weapons of very ancient origin had been found which must huve been contemporary to both Pitheconthropus (Java man) and Sinanthropus (Peking man).
These are the oldest distinctly human remains found and have been dated at approximately 1,000,000
years.
Opinion favours the theory that although Peking mon was very primitive and possessed of only a low
grade intelligence, both may have existed at the same ilme just as there are variations in head size and huni knowledge among the inhabitants of earth to-day.

The explorer told also of finding parallels of the same kind of stone age culture in Northern India, in Java, and in China, wherefore his surmise that the most ancient tool- making originated in Southeastern Asia from which it spread to various lands.
