The find consisted of a skull and several bones. Neanderthal Man was found in Neander Valley in Germany in 1856 by Johann Fuhlrott. Someone combined an orangutan jaw with filed teeth with a human skull that had been chemically treated to make it look old. After it became the consensus of the world's greatest authorities that it was the genuine link in the evolution of man, it was found to be a hoax. Piltdown Man was declared to be 500,000 years old and the missing link. It turns out that all of the assertions that missing links have been found have been identified as false or discredited. How could so many articles reporting finding the "missing link" in prominent newspapers and magazines be wrong? That is an interesting question that begs for an answer. I wish only to point out that it was never seen in the rocks." I wish in no way to impugn the potential validity of gradualism. The evolutionary trees that adorn our textbooks have data only at the tips and nodes of their branches the rest is inference, however reasonable, not the evidence of fossils. He stated, "The extreme rarity of transitional forms in the fossil record persists as the trade secret of paleontology. Gould, America's most famous evolutionist, confirms this. In a slightly different metaphor using the tree of life, the late Stephen J. Nothing could be further from the truth! The truth is that for the last 150 years, since Darwin, evolutionists have been searching for the first transitional fossil link out of potentially millions required to explain the entire chain and still have not found it. This implies that evolution has almost fully explained how man has descended from the earliest ancestral life form of some microprobe. What this metaphor implies is that chain links representing current species are connected together by one or more links representing transitional fossils from extinct life forms to form one or more unbroken chains that only need one transitional fossil link to complete the chain. Many articles have been published by prominent newspapers and magazines stating that the "missing link" has been found.
