Anthropological History of Europe

John Beddoe

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This new edition of The Anthropological History of Europe seems to be called for not only by the exhaustion of the earlier one, but by the lapse of time (twenty years) since the delivery of the Rhind Lectures of 1891, during which period the limits of what may fairly be termed history have been pushed back in some parts of Europe by hundreds or even thousands of years, and the views I origin ally expressed on some parts of the subject have either been confirmed or rendered more problem atical. I have endeavoured therefore to bring the volume up to date, but have avoided entering on the discussion of such subjects as pygmies and steatopygous men in Europe, of which we as yet know little, and which must as yet be excluded from the domain of history.
