| Summary | "The Prehistoric World; Or, Vanished Races" by Emory Adams Allen is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. This work aims to explore and explain the life and times of prehistoric humanity as inferred from archaeological evidence, covering both the Old and New Worlds and considering various ancient civilizations, including those in Mexico and the Pacific Isles. At the start of the book, the author introduces the complexities and mysteries surrounding the study of prehistoric man, discussing the limitations of historical records and the importance of gathering evidence from archaeological findings to understand humanity’s distant past. Allen emphasizes the necessity of scientific inquiry and methodology in reconstructing history while advocating for a more comprehensive understanding of man's long existence on Earth, marked by gradual advancements in culture and civilization. He reviews the geological epochs correspondingly, linking them to the development of life on Earth and setting the stage for an in-depth examination of prehistoric societies that once thrived across the globe.
