MOULIN QUIGNON

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 934 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOS-NAN
MOULIN QUIGNON , a quarry near Abbeville,
France
 , celebrated for the discovery in 1863 by
Boucher
  de
Perthes
  of a human jaw-bone believed to be referable to the
Quaternary
  period. By his collection of flints
Boucher
  de
Perthes
  had been the first to
attempt
  to establish the existence of man in remote ages; but it had been objected that if the flints were indeed the
work
  of man, human remains would have been found in association with them. Considerable excitement therefore was created both in
England
  and
France
  by the " find " of bones at Moulin Quignon, and a commission of inquiry was appointed. The report was favourable to the genuineness of the
relics
 , but latterly doubts have arisen as to whether they can be regarded as earlier than the
Neolithic
  age.
