'T'HE manuscript of the following work was left by
* Brinton hisDr. at death in in a state of1899
approximate completion, lacking only final revision at
his hands. The editor has contented himself, there-
fore, with making such verbal corrections as were
necessary and, slightby rearrangement of certain sec-
tions to conform to the obvious scheme of the work,
bringing the text into readiness for publication. The
verification and noting of references have not been
attempted. The author's encyclopedic acquaintance
with the literature of his subject as well as his general
method of quotation has made this impracticable.
Dr. Brinton's contributions to anthropology are too
well known to call for especial comment, his writings,
particularly in the fields of American archaeology and
linguistics, being so numerous and valuable as to give
him a world-wide reputation. His interest, however,
was general as well as special, and the development
of anthropology owes much to his insight and ready
for which stood allpen. Among the doctrines he at
