Abstract


During the first decades of the 20th Century important findings of hominids fossil remains were made, enlarging the knowledge on Human Evolution. This period runs parallel to the activity of the Junta para Ampliación de Estudios e Investigaciones Científicas (JAE), an institution that helped to spread the new paleontological facts in Spain by providing funds for further studies and research, by the foundation of the Comisión de Investigaciones Paleontológicas y Prehistóricas (CIPP) and the promotion of publications on Human Paleontology.
