The Origin and Evolution of Primitive Man: Lecture Given at the Royal Societies Club, St. James Street, February 1912 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Human origins traced to Africa, with the Pygmy as the first man
This edition presents the idea that humanity began in Africa, not Asia, and that the earliest people were Pygmies who spread across the world. It argues that later groups evolved in distinct steps, including Nilotic Negroes and the Stellar Mythos peoples, shaping our early history.
From there, the book frames a wide timeline, linking osteology, toolmaking, and burial customs. It blends anatomy with culture to propose how prehistory formed across continents, including notes on ancient graves and ritual offerings.- How early tools and how they were hafted mark stages of human progress
- Descriptive portraits of Pygmy anatomy, hair, and facial features
- The idea of Stellar Mythos and its role in ancient faiths and myths
- Burial practices and grave goods tied to beliefs about rebirth

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origin and evolution of human civilization, challenging the notion that it began in Asia. The author presents evidence suggesting that the Pygmy, a small, reclusive people, were the first humans, emerging in Africa and spreading to other regions. The book traces their evolution into Bushmen and Masaba Negroes, followed by Nilotic Negroes, whose totemic beliefs are explored. Ancient implements, burial customs, and language provide further evidence of the Pygmy's primacy. The author also examines the impact of Stellar Mythos people on human development, their creation of advanced instruments, and their influence on Egyptian mythology.
