  • Two Microliths from Javanese Wadjak Man
    J.Anthrop.Soc.Nippon人 類 誌 100(2):191-203(1992) LETTER TO THE EDITOR Two Microliths from Javanese Wadjak Man P. STORM Collection Dubois National Museum of Natural History Leiden, The Netherlands Abstract Recently, during a restudy of the fragmentary bone material of the Wadjak site two microliths were discovered. A description of these artefacts is given. A discussion is presented in the light of other Holocene prehistoric sites from Java, a supposed linkage between Wadjak Man and the Pacitanian, the fauna and suggestions about the age of the Wadjak site. These new finds fit with the view of Wadjak Man as Modern Man ("Proto Javanese"), found in association with the subrecent fauna from Java. Key Words Java, Wadjak Man, Subrecent Fauna, Microliths Introduction (BRACE et al., 1971; SOEJONO, 1984), Mediterranean In 1888 Mr. B.D. Van RIETSCHOTEN,in a search for (PINKLEY, 1936), or Wadjak Man as an extinct form marble, discovered a fossilized human skull in a (KEITH, 1925). The fauna associated with the Wadjak skulls is well rockshelter, nowadays well known as the Wadjak site known (DUBOIS,1922; Van den BRINK, 1982). Based on (Van RIETSCHOTEN, 1888; DUBOIS 1889, 1922; Plate the fauna and the morphology of the human skulls 1). The Wadjak site is located on a mountain slope in (DUBOIS, 1922; JACOB, 1967; SANTA LUCA, 1980; Southwest Java, south of Mount Willis near the village STORM, 1990b), the date could be considered as of Wadjak (present day; Wajak), (DUBOIS,1922; Azlz somewhere in the Late Pleistocene or Holocene. and De VOS,1989). The human skull was sent to DUBOIS According to DUBOIS (1922) no artefacts had been who, attracted by this find, visited the site in 1890 and found in the Wadjak site.

  • Human Evolution : ZOOL3014 B.Sc. (Hons'): Vith Semester by Prof
    Human Evolution Core course: ZOOL3014 B.Sc. (Hons’): VIth Semester Prof. Pranveer Singh Before Homo, Early evolution of Primates Oligocene primates Parapithecus was a primitive primate ancestral to man, apes and monkeys. It was very small squirrel-like earliest primitive monkey having tarsier-like appearance. The jaw was conical, the two halves converging at an angle of 33 degrees. These creatures were probably adapted for arboreal mode of life and had opposable thumb, forwardly directed eyes and reduced snout Propliopithecus fossils were discovered from Fayum deposits in Egypt that comprised of a lower jaw with teeth. The jaw is smaller and more pointed than that of a gibbon, prognathous and deep. Canines were smaller and bunodont grinders had 5 bulbous cusps as in apes and man. Limnopithecus first discovered by Hopwood in 1933 from Kenya is represented by several fragments of mandibles, teeth and limb bones. The dentition is gibbon-like but limb bones are unspecialized and a combination of monkeys and gibbons Miocene apes Pliopithecus is represented by several well preserved fossils from Egypt and Europe. It shows affinity with pongids but the mandibular symphysis is longer and more prosimian type. A shallow simian gap is present. Body is gibbon-like in the morphology of pelvis, vertebrae and sternum. Limb bones are surprisingly primitive, resembling those of prosimians while the general body proportions are like those of monkeys Dryopithecus (=Sivapithecus) (=Proconsul) was ancestral to Orangutan, chimpanzee and gorilla and resembled gibbon in stature Most of the fossils are represented by jaw fragments and teeth, with few exceptions such as a humerus and an ulna from France and a femur from Germany The three genera, Dryopithecus, Sivapithecus andProconsul have been placed in the subfamily Dryopithecinae Arms and legs were of same length and posture was semi-erect.

INTRODUCTION For the last several years, a large number of fossils of the Hominidae family are coming to light . The phylogenetic tree constructed as a hypothesis to understand relationships between fossil falters with each new finding. It is not easy to establish these relationships. Researchers in Paleoanthropology demonstrate them on a provisional basis. They are aware of the fact that the finding of new fossil evidence will deeply change those relationships. Gone are the days of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century when hypothetical polyphyletic phylogenies were published with very few discovered fossils. In these phylogenies certain current primates (apes) were associated with SCRITPTA THEOLOGICA 20 (1988/1) 65-99 65 RAFAEL JORDANA different human races 1. Much progress has been made in Paleoanthropology to avoid such simplifications, but the question of 'man ape' is still present in the minds of many scientific commentators.
