Anthropological Find

In Mexico Throws New Light On Modern Man

BY PAUL F: ELLIS

Anthropologists have new evidence today that man, as he is now known, lived on the North Ameri- can continent at least 10,000 years ago.

This new evidence is part of a human skeleton, now being inspected at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. It was dug up near the village of Tepexpun, Mexico, on February 22 and caused a stir among those seeking traces of early man in America.
