THE
RAGES OF EUROPE
Palestinian
specimens. One skull in particular bears a striking resemblance to
Chancelade.
The
statures of these people were low: 159 cm* for the men, 151 cm. for
the women; the long bones not very heavy. The distal extremities
were relatively long; not as much so as in some earlier skeletons,
but more so than among most living Europeans.
Our
interpretation of these late Mesolithic remains from the western
corner of France is that they represent a group of marginal
Epipalaeolithic survivors from beyond the Pyrenees, pushed
northward, partly by climatic changes and partly by the arrival of
new people from North Africa. We have, after all, no other evidence
to show us what kind of people inhabited the Iberian Peninsula
during the Late Pleistocene; a conglomerate of first wave
Grimaldi-Combe Capelle-like Aurignacians plus some Magdalenians,
plus some bringers of microliths from the south and east, would
presumably look very much like this Teviec type, especially
since the overgrown Middle and Late Aurignacians did not hunt south
of the Pyrenees.
Aside
from this T6viec series, the Azilian culture proper is represented
by the remains of four individuals removed from the Trou Violet at
Montardit,19 Arri&ge, in the northern Pyrenees, near
the type station of the Azilian at Mas d’Azil, and one mandible
and several long bones, from Mas d’Azil itself.20 Only
one specimen, the so-called Montardit I, includes a complete
skeleton, or even a complete brain case. Without elaboration, one
may say that in every respect they belong to the same type as that
of T6viec.
The
third reasonably large series of Mesolithic crania in Europe comes
from the Ofnet cave near Hohlheim in Bavaria,21 where
thirty-three skulls were found neatly arranged in a solid circle,
like eggs in a nest. Nineteen of them belonged to children, ten to
women, and only four to men. Along with the skulls were, in most
cases, the two topmost neck vertebrae, the axis and atlas. The
bodies were missing. A few miles away, at Kauferts- berg, a single
adult male skull has been discovered which was buried under
identical circumstances.
Unfortunately,
it is impossible to detect the murderers in this Mesolithic mystery.
The peculiar sex ratio, the fact that all the heads were buried at
once and while still fresh, and the further fact that all had been
fractured by sharp blows with a lens-shaped implement similar in
form to a round- poled celt,22 make it unlikely that this
was a normal, peaceful form of

MESOLITHIC PERIOD

burial.
The skulls were daubed with red ochre, and a few flint implements
were left with them. From these clues we may deduce that the
killers, their victims, or both, were culturally either
Tardenoisians,23 or Azilians, and that the date is
probably Period II of the Mesolithic.24 These skulls do
not form a homogeneous group, but differ greatly in head form, as
well as in other characters. Of the two dolichocephals, the male
#K1818 is obviously an Upper Palaeolithic survivor, without visible
change. This skull exceeds the rest of the series in general size.
It is extremely massive, with projecting browridges, a retreating
forehead, a very broad face, extremely low orbits, and a
ponderous mandible. Its cubic capacity is well over 1600 cc. Its
companion, a male of lesser dimensions, is less extremely developed
and falls closer to the general type of the series.
The
mesocephals, which include Kaufertsberg, are smaller, and
relatively higher vaulted; as Boule and Vallois have pointed
out,25 they verge on the type of Teviec, which these
authors consider to be Magdalenian survivals. At any rate, they do
not seem to be intermediate between the dolichocephals just
described, which resemble rather a full Aurignacian prototype, and
the brachycephals.
The
last present the real Ofnet problem. Two of the brachycephalic
crania are masculine,26 two feminine, with the highest
index, that of a female, 87. These skulls are long, wide, and of
moderate vault height; the faces are without exception wide. In one
of the male specimens (K1809) the greatest length of the skull lies
in the forward segment, as with modern planoccipitals, such as
Armenoids. The forehead of this skull is very wide, and the face
extremely broad and low. The face is, furthermore, completely
orthognathous, and the lower jaw is very massive, with flaring
gonial angles and a square, bilateral chin. This jaw is also very
high, and reduces the impression of shortness in the total facial
plane. The other male specimen, on the borderline of brachycephaly
(K1800) is the only one in the whole group which is hypsiconch, and
one of two that are lep- torrhine.
The
female skulls show a considerable sex difference in head form, and
likewise in browridges and other manifestations of bony relief. As
with their Upper Palaeolithic prototypes, they are notably smaller,
in most cases, than the males. On the whole, they vary much less
than do the masculine crania, and fall closest to the brachycephalic
male, K1809, in type.

Mesolithic Settlement of Northern Europe,

Mollison,
in view of the cross-section of the implement with which they were
killed, suggests that the date may have been Late Magdalenian,
since no such implement reappears until the Late Neolithic.
