  • Geological Evidences of the Antiquity of Man is a book written by British geologist, Charles Lyell in 1863. The first three editions appeared in February, April, and November 1863, respectively. A much-revised fourth edition appeared in 1873. Antiquity of Man, as it was known to contemporary readers, dealt with three scientific issues that had become prominent in the preceding decade: the age of the human race, the existence of ice ages, and Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Lyell used the book to reverse or modify his own long-held positions on all three issues. The book drew sharp criticism from two of Lyell's younger colleagues – paleontologist Hugh Falconer and archaeologist John Lubbock – who felt that Lyell had used their work too freely and acknowledged it too sparingly. It sold well, however, and (along with Lubbock's 1865 book Prehistoric Times) helped to establish the new science of prehistoric archaeology in Great Britain. (en)
  • Geological Evidences of the Antiquity of Man adalah buku karangan geolog Britania, Charles Lyell, pada tahun 1863. Tiga edisi pertamanya diterbitkan pada Februari, April, dan November 1863. Edisi keempatnya, yang mengalami banyak revisi, diterbitkan pada tahun 1873. Buku ini lebih dikenal oleh pembacanya dengan judul Antiquity of Man dan membahas mengenai tiga isu ilmiah yang penting saat itu, yaitu usia umat manusia, peristiwa zaman es, dan teori evolusi oleh seleksi alam dari Charles Darwin. Lyell menggunakan buku ini untuk mengubah dan memodifikasi pendapat lamanya mengenai ketiga isu tersebut. Buku ini memperoleh banya kritik dari dua kolega Lyell yang lebih muda – paleontolog dan arkeolog – yang merasa bahwa Lyell telah memanfaatkan karya mereka dengan terlalu bebas dan tidak cukup mengakuinya. Buku ini laris dan (bersama dengan buku karangan Lubbock tahun 1865) membantu mendirikan ilmu baru, yaitu arkeologi prasejarah di Britania Raya. (in)

Uma quarta edição substancialmente revista apareceu em 1873. Antiquity of Man, como é conhecido por leitores contemporâneos, lidava com três questões científicas que se tinham tornado predominantes na época: a idade da raça humana, a existência de idades do gelo e a teoria da evolução através de selecção natural de Charles Darwin. Lyell usou o livro para reverter ou modificar as suas convicções de longo tempo sobre os três assuntos. O livro vendeu bem e ajudou no estabelecimento da nova ciência da arqueologia pré-histórica na Grã-Bretanha, juntamente com o livro de Lubbock, . (pt)
