I believe the only use of Piltdown Man was in an affidavit by an (or two) "expert" witness. Piltdown was only "discovered" in 1912, the Hunter's ''Civic Biology'' text was published in 1914.

::Very good point. The reality is this: Professor Cole and Professor Newman (two potential witnesses the court refused to allow to testify) mentioned Piltdown Man in their affidavits, but in neither case did they show much enthusiasm. Piltdown Man ''is not'' in the textbook. (Note, this is from [http://www.bradburyac.mistral.co.uk/tenness5.html#pm], a sire devoted to trashing ''Civic Biology''.
::Andy, you need to retract the statement if you wish Conservapedia to be "accurate" (not that this article is very accurate anyway, but...) [[User:NousEpirrhytos|NousEpirrhytos]] 17:31, 22 March 2007 (EDT)
