If man was positively contem-porary with the Miocene vegetation (we are still arguingfrom the popular scientific standpoint), and the Pleistocenemammals are now acknowledged on all sides to have beencontemporary with man, what is there to forbid the ideathat the Pleistocene mammals and the Miocene flora werecontemporary with one another? For nearly half a century, geologists have never hadthe courage to face this problem fairly and squarely, with GODS TWO BOOKS 127 all preconceived prejudices about uniformity cast aside. Isit possible that all the Tertiaries and the Pleistocene maybe really a unit after all? The trouble would then bethat, with this much conceded, the whole phylogen
