	LOUIS LAURENT GABRIEL DE MORTILLET - LoveToKnow Article on LOUIS LAURENT GABRIEL DE MORTILLET (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		MORTILLET, LOUIS LAURENT GABRIEL DE (1821-1898), French anthropologist, was born at Meylau, Isere, on the 2gth of August 1821.
		Roger's age would have forbidden him to be with the duke at Hastings, but, according to Wace, his son Hugh was in the fight, and Ralph the third son was probably among the knights.
		Hugh de Mortimer, who is found as his successor, a great Herefordshire baron in 1140, may have been either the son of Ralph's old age, or a grandson, the son of another Ralph.

	Archæology of the Cross and Crucifix
		De Mortillet is of opinion that such use of the sign was not merely ornamental, but rather a symbol of consecration, especially in the case of objects pertaining to burial.
		In the centre of it is a cross standing on a terrestrial globe studded with stars; on either side stands an angel with a staff in his left hand, the right being raised in adoration; four rivers flow from its base and indicate that the scene is in Paradise.
		Borgia, De Cruce Veliternâ, 191), the crown of thorns is introduced, the arms are bent back, the body is twisted, the face is wrung with agony, and blood flows from the wounds.

	Gabriel de Mortillet
		French archaeologist Gabriel de Mortillet was born in Meylan, France on August 29, 1821.
		In 1876, Mortillet became a professor of prehistoric anthropology at the School of Anthropology in Paris.
		Mortillet is best known for developing a chronological classification system of the prehistoric cultural development of man. Based on the idea that older specimens of man were more primitive structurally and culturally, he created a ladder-like model of the evolution of man. This model was the basis for the idea of linear evolution of men.

	Paleolithic Man in France
		De Perthes published his results in 1838 and was coldly received by fellow scientists.
		De Perthes lived to see his scientific contemporaries convinced that man was incredibly old and had lived at the same time that extinct and tropical animals had lived in Europe.
		Lartet’s son Louis climaxed his father’s work by excavating a site at Les Eyzies where the first Cro-Magnon skeletons were found in 1869, the first human fossils definitely associated with a stage of the newly established cultural sequences.

	Archaeology Wordsmith
		By 1869, de Mortillet's scheme for the Stone Age had the following subdivisions: Thenaisian (for the now discredited eoliths), followed by Chellean, Mousterian, Solutrean, Aurignacian, Magdalenian, and (for the Neolithic) Robenhausian, named after a lake village -- though alterations and additions (Acheulian) were made later.
		De Mortillet saw his epochs as periods of time or as stages of development with a universal validity, and his scheme was basically a refinement of the Three Age System.
		This is no longer accepted and de Mortillet's epochs are now thought to represent cultures and to have local validity only.

	Louis Kahn - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Louis Kahn
		A follower of Mies van der Rohe, he developed a classically romantic style, in which functional ‘servant’ areas such as stairwells and air ducts feature prominently, often as towerlike structures surrounding the main living and working, or ‘served’, areas.
		His special approach to the problems of light control in buildings was evidenced in the design of the Capital Centre at Dacca, Bangladesh, 1964–72, and the Indian Institute of Management at Ahmahabad, 1963.

	Solutrean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Large thin spear-heads; scrapers with edge not on the side but on the end; flint knives and saws, but all still chipped, not ground or polished; long spear-points, with tang and shoulder on one side only, are also characteristic implements of this industry.
		The name was created by G de Mortillet to describe the second stage of his system of cave-chronology, following the Mousterian and he considered it synchronous with the third division of the Quaternary period.
		The Solutrian work exhibits a transitory stage of art between the flint implements of the Mousterian and the bone implements of the Magdelanian epochs.

		The principal actors in the original drama are a circle of “freethinking anthropologists” that others have called “scientific materialists,” or the circle around Gabriel de Mortillet (André Lefevre, Eugène Véron, Charles Letourneau, Abel Hovelacque, Henri Thulié).
		In the view of the French scholar Laurent Mucchielli, this is just another example of the Durkheimian tide (“the discovery of the social”) unleashed by the Dreyfus Affair.
		This book will be richly rewarding to scholars of the Third Republic, to historians of anti-clericalism and of the social sciences, and even to laymen with an interest in the current round of the nature-nurture culture wars about the genome and evolutionary psychology.

		Also pertinent to the issue of collaboration was the reproduction in the catalogue of anthropologist, archeologist, and physician Louis Capitan's 1903 necrological article that discusses how painter Paul Jamin, four of whose works are in the exhibition, consulted with Capitan in creating his scenes of prehistory.
		In general, the title evoked the degree to which the early study of prehistory was informed by both mythology and the Bible and by a desire to reconcile new knowledge with received wisdom.
		As reflected in the variety of venues, as well as in the catalogue contributions by art historians, archeologists, and historians of science, the exhibition as a whole, like the works on display in it, held both artistic and scientific value.

		Later, Jacques Boucher de Crèvecœur de Perthes, working between 1836 and 1846, collected further examples of hand-axes and fossilised animal bone from the gravel river terraces of the Somme near Abbeville in northern France.
		Following visits to both Abbeville and Saint Acheul by the geologist Joseph Prestwich, the age of the tools was finally accepted.
		Louis Laurent Gabriel de Mortillet described the characteristic hand-axe tools as belonging to L'Epoque de St Acheul in 1872.

		De Man's dissertation dealt with vertebrates, but when he was appointed assistant curator at the Museum in Leiden in 1872, he changed direction to invertebrates and in 1875 he succeded Hoffmann (q.v.) as invertebrate curator.
		Eventually this old insensible and stubborn director began harassing his young shy and work-devoted employee and in 1883 de Man left the museum and spent the next 10 years working with his favourite animals at the home of his parents, who were economically well situated.

		They were an important force in the Counter-Reformation and in the Catholic missions, in part because their relatively loose structure (without the requirements of living in community, saying the divine office together, etc.) allowed them to be flexible to meet the needs of the people at the time.
		Jesuit scholars working in these foreign missions to the "heathens" were very important in understanding their unknown languages and strived for producing Latinicized grammars and dictionaries, the first organized efforts at linguistics.
