Digging at the Site of Peking Man

(Original Caption) Anthropologists and local workmen dig near the original cave where the "Beijing Man" skull was discovered 50 years ago in the nearby village of Zhoukoudian. Walls are marked in numbered sections with white chalk to keep track of what is found where. The famous skull disappeared during World War II on its way to the United States.
