REPORT ON THE DEPARTMENT OF PREHISTORIC ANTHROPOLOGY IN THE U. S. NATIONAL MUSEUM, 1893.
----------
By THOMAS WILSON, Curator
----------

The usual work of the office was kept up during the fiscal year. Specimens were received, classified, arranged, catalogued, marked and distributed; letters were written; reports made. The largest part of the year was consumed in the preparation for the exposition Historico-Americano held at Madrid in the latter half of 1892, and for the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893, which be noticed elsewhere. The Curator was absent on duty at Madrid from July to December, 1892.
