 Sir Arthur Keith + Sir Hiram Maxim
It was on this date, February 5, 1866, that Scottish anatomist and physical anthropologist Sir Arthur Keith was born in Aberdeen, the son of a farmer.
A prominent evolutionist in his time, Keith was one of many experts, lacking the tool of radiocarbon dating (not invented until the year of his death) taken in by the Piltdown fossil hoax.
Keith once said, "This world of ours has been constructed like a superbly written novel: we pursue the tale with avidity, hoping to discover the plot." Although this sounds like Keith admitted a divine plan, he was among other memberships an Honorary Associate of the British Rationalist Press Association.

 An Appraisal of the Case Against
New lines of argument against Arthur Keith, coupled with those of Langham and Spencer, lead to the conclusion that, of all the proposals as to the identity of Dawson’s scientist-accomplice, the Langham-Spencer hypothesis incriminating Keith is supported by the greatest body of evidence.
Either Keith's statement to Hrdlicka was a "white lie" or it is to be seen as part of the pattern carefully created by Keith to distance himself from Piltdown, from the "remains," and from Dawson pnor to December 1912.
Keith (1915, 1925) held to the view that ancestral hominids were men with essentially modem-looking crania, and he agreed with Elliot Smith that they would have possessed an essentially modem form and size of brain.

Then too, there is a considerable amount of material which Dr. Keith, had he been permitted to finish his work, would have filtered into proper place as supplementary to his completed manuscripts, which we cannot do with any assurances that it applies.
It willbe practical, perhaps, to box this as "miscellaneous", making it available to inquiry for any personal interest it may contain to one working on these lines, although the material will be in the nature of unrelated notes and record.
