What reading level is Researches Into the Physical History of Man Microform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such precisely at this day are the inhabitants of the Andaman Islands in the bay of Bengal, who are still savages, and probably cannibals. The Papuas of New Guinea and the interior of the Islands of the Indian Ocean, are just the same kind of people, and are all supposed by Dr. Leyden to have emigrated from the interior of Malaya, where they have left remnants of their stock in the black savages of the mountains.
We have observed above that many peculiar traits of manners connect the insular tr...ibes with the rude races on the continent.
All these considerations would still afford only probability, but not proof to the opinion that the former Hindus were Negroes, but we have evidence of the fact in the remains of ancient sculpture, of which such magnificent specimens have been found in different parts of India.
Abundance of learning has been bestowed by antiquarians on the subterraneous temples which have been discovered in different parts 393 of the east, particularly in Egypt, India and Persia, (a) It is not easy to ascertain the reasons which induced the ancients to fix on caverns for the celebration of their religious rites, or when natural recesses in the sides of mountains or in the depths of the earth were wanting, to expend so much labour as they are found to have bestowed in forming artificial excavations.
