EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts a human skull, collected from the Admiralty Islands in the south-western Pacific Ocean during the H.M.S. Challenger expedition (1872-1876). Funded by the British Government for the purpose of scientific discovery, the Challenger expedition was the first comprehensive hydrographic survey of the world's oceans. The voyage yielded invaluable data on oceanography, geology, and biology, including the discovery of thousands of new species. The skull in this engraving is a poignant reminder of the human presence on the expedition, as well as the encounters with indigenous populations. The study of human anatomy was an important aspect of the scientific inquiries conducted during the Challenger expedition. This skull, classified as Homo sapiens or modern human, is a valuable addition to the Hominini family tree.
