Excerpt from The Eolithic Problem, Vol. 7: Evidences of a Rude Industry Antedating the Paleolithic
Nature's processes may be likened to photography. She fur nishes the sensitized film, and the finger of Time manipulates the camera. It remains for man to develop and interpret the exposures. The geological record is a film cartridge exposed and sealed again, bound up with which are the beginnings of man's own record on the earth. The process of development begins with the most recent exposure and works backward.
