ResumoAbstract The present author published, in 1962 and 1964, a hypothesis according to which modern-type man came into existence independently, in that least three separate geographic centres, during the Upper Pleistocene. New fossil finds corroborate two statements made in previously published papers: (a) Djebel Sahaba shows that recent negroids are modified ancient europoids, and (b) the Palaeosiberian affinities of Wadi-el-Amud indicate the early separation of mongoloid race ancestors at the Palaeanthropic phase.
