摘要:Because human evolution is often a stumbling block for accepting evolution, creationist legends about paleoanthropology are persistent.Three such legends, according to which paleoanthropology is based on finds that are admittedly fraudulent (Piltdown) or unadmittedly fraudulent (Peking), or is contravened by neglected finds (Paluxy), are critically discussed.
