Changes of climate had occurred in South Africa during the past million years, but they were relatively slight, and did not have the same marked effects on the migrations of animals of which there was evidence in Europe durind Ice Ages.

"South Africa," conclued Dr. Cooke, "has much to contribute to the study of the period of human evolution but we are sadly handicapped by lack of funds and facilities for properly-conducted research."
 +
Dr. E. Nilssen (Sweden), who, also spoke yersterday, compared the Pleistocene climatic changes in East Africa. India, Egypt and Nothern Europe.
 +
"The Pluvials in East Africa," he said, "are registered by systems of moraine-ridges of former glaciers going down very much lower on the slopes of its highest mountains than the present glaciers do. The Pluvials are also registered by lake-sediments and wave-cut terraces, indicating former lakes which more or less filled-up the basins of the Rift Valley. The Interpluvials are traced by discordances in the lake-sediments and by aeolian sediment.
 +
"Similar traces of climatic changes are recorded from the Kashmir area of north west India, the Faiyum depression in Egypt and the depression of the Dead Sea in Palestine. These ancient climatic changes in the different countries seem to correspond very well to each other, but also to those changes of climate which caused the glacial and interglacial epochs of Europe.
 +
"Smaller climatic changes during the post-pluvial time up to our days," he continued, "also seem to have affected all these regions contemporaneously. The present changes of climate, which are - especially in the Equatorial belt - characterised by a very pronounced desiccation, are a link in the sequance of former climatic changes, contemporaneous the world over."
