What reading level is Prehistoric Man And His Story; a Sketch of the History of Mankind From the Earliest Times book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But these calabashes are now in continual use in tropical Africa, and have to be carried about. There are two ways of slinging them. One is 332 Prehistoric Man and his Story to attach a long cord passing over the shoulder to a sort of Y-shaped webbing, which passes diagonally over the bulging part of the calabash ; the other is to tie a string round the slight projection at its neck.
The writer (we could find no author's name) of this paper ^^ gives illustrations showing very neatly how these t...wo methods are responsible for the ornament of the native pottery. The calabash can be made to grow into almost any shape by suitable bands tied round it when young, and the shapes are probably modelled on ancient types of pottery. Certainly the early European (Copper Age) pottery has ornaments which seem to have been derived from the same necessity of hanging up the pots.
These, having at first only a rounded bottom, were not able to stand on their own feet. We think another hint of the author explains also the peculiar little knob-like handles seen on some prehistoric beakers.
