John Lubbock Knihy
Tento autor bol kľúčovou postavou v rozvoji archeológie ako vedeckej disciplíny a významne prispel k debatám o evolučnej teórii v 19. storočí. Jeho práce spájala archeologické dôkazy s Darwinovým konceptom prirodzeného výberu. Zaviedol tiež pojmy „paleolit“ a „neolit“ na označenie staršej a mladšej doby kamennej. Jeho literárny odkaz spočíva v presvedčení o biologických rozdieloch medzi ľudskými skupinami, ktoré sú výsledkom prirodzeného výberu, a v jeho vplyve na chápanie ľudského vývoja.
