Reseña del editor

In his Presidential Address to the Royal Anthropological Institute this year the lateD r. Rivers put his finger upon the most urgent need for reform in the study of Man, when he appealed for the Unity of Anthropology .N otrue conception of the nature and the early history of the human family can be acquired by investigations, however carefully they may be done, of one class of evidence only. The physical characters of a series of skulls can give no reliable information unless their exact provenance and relative age are known. But the interpretation of the meaning of these characters cannot be made unless we know something of the movements of the people and the distinctive peculiarities of the inhabitants of the foreign lands from which they may have come. No less important than the study of their physical structure is the cultural history of peoples.
