To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let us call him Pekin Man. What we know of him was revealed through the discovery in Choukoutien Cave of several skulls and a few other bones. A careful study of the skulls and long bones (principal bones of arms and legs) showed that he ate human flesh. A hole was knocked in the side of each skull to remove the brain and the long bones were split lengthwise to make easy the removal of the marrow. In times still ancient, earth had been washed down over the remains of his feasts, and filled the ...cave. Later this earth hardened into rock and preserved within it the human and other animal bones until they were discovered early in this century. Stone tools found in the cave were of the core type (chopper) and probably belonged to Pekin Man. He is thought to have known the use of fire and possibly how to make it. Professor Weidenreich, who made an exhaustive study of the skeletal remains, believed him to be the direct ancestor of the modern Chinese; most anthropologists disagree with him. For a final answer we must await more evidence.
