	history 120 \| the debate over slavery (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Pritchard seems to be so much afraid that if the differences which Malpighi, Scemmerring, Cuvier, and other comparative anatomists have discovered in the negro's organization, approximating him to the monkey tribes, be admitted, the Bible will be invalidated, that he has taken much pains to try to overturn general truths and principles by partial exceptions.
		But observation proved that, so far from the fl color being caused by disease, the flest negroes were always the healthiest, and the thicker the lips, and the fatter the nose, the sounder the constitution.
		Both Pritchard and Todd labor to prove by a few cases, exceptions to the general rule, that the brain of the negro and his mental capacity are equal to the white man, lest the Scriptures be invalidated, if any inferior slave race be admitted.

	Race - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [Anonymoused]
		In the 19th century, race was a central concept of anthropology.
		In 1866, James Hunt, the founder of the Anthropological Society of London, declared that anthropology’s primary truth “is the existence of well-marked psychological and moral distinctions in the different races of men.” However, this view became marginalised in the 20th century.
		Since 1932, college textbooks introducing physical anthropology have increasingly come to reject race as a valid concept: from 1932 to 1976, only seven out of thirty-two rejected race; from 1975 to 1984, thirteen out of thirty-three rejected race; from 1985 to 1993, thirteen out of nineteen rejected race.

		An extended quotation from the scholarly Dr. Pritchard, dealing as he does with “pronominal suffixes,” “vocables” and similar technical terms, would be beyond the capability and understanding of the average person.
