OLD HOME OF THE RACE Somewhere on the lofty mid-Asia- n plateau, scholars tell us, was the region whence the human race dispersed and was distributed If the theory seems to cynics a little like sentimental engraving, we have to trust the authorities. At any rate, in that now thinly populated district are the relic3 of early civilizations, earlier than any now known to history. It is significant that the most ancient civilized countries that we know, Babylonia, Chaldea and their successors and rivforef als, the peoples of the time in Asia Minor, Egypt, India, China, are the frontiers or extensions of this central area, whence wave after wave of invasion has flowed Man in the hunting stage has to follow the game for his food and his clothes. Therefore it is probable that Central Asia was the old home whence emigrated mammals whose descendants now live in other regions. far-of- Botanic, geological and zoological expeditions to this district have been made. The American Museum of Natural History has sent a zoological expedition to Mongolia and another to Yunan in recent years, and collected scientific material so valuable that it plans a third Asiatic expedition which will be carried on for five years, wil be much broader than any of its predecessors, and include anthropological, archaeological and paleontological investigations. Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews, that mighty hunter and accomplished scientist, who is to head the new expedition as he headed its forerunners, tells us that there is no similar area in the inhabtied surface of the earth about which so Jittle is known. Of the fossils of eastern and central Asia practically nothing is known. It is curious to learn that knowledge of the fossils of eastern Asia rests almost entirely upon the report of a small collection of teeth and fragmentary bones purchased in the medicine shops of Tientsin and described by a German named Schols-ser- . gion and of the remains left fumm tribes little is knoi study of those tribes is necmj the, enlarge our knowledge tions of the early peoples, aiwi origin and relations of all ih1. iezd nations of the world.
