Piltdown man : the secret life of Charles Dawson & the world's greatest archaeological hoax
Russell, Miles2003
Books
The human and animal remains discovered at Piltdown almost 100 years ago were at the time hailed as the 'missing link' between ape & man. It was not until 1953 that it was revealed to be a hoax. The perpetrator was almost certainly excavator Charles Dawson, responsible for 16 other archaeological forgeries.
