Sir Arthur declares that tlie man. nt least, hail much more brain capacity than he lias. “The evidence of the skel eton lits in best witli Roman dates," lie said. "Tlie skeleton is that of a man of about fifty-six years of age. The markings of Hie jaw suggest cooked food and points in favor of the skeleton being that of n Roman settler or descendant of one. He was right-handed, lint evidently not a manual laborer. I suspect tlie man occupied a responsible posi tlon In life.” The skeleton Is that of a person who, it Is estimated, lived about 1.70 J years ago.
