Onward, now smiling at the idea that "Dragon Man's" skull was cleverly hidden -- in the bottom of a well, in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, in northeast China, in 1933, to avoid the find falling into then-hostile Japanese (occupation) hands. Fast forward, three-quarters of a century. . . .
Some 78 years later, the man who originally found it told his grandchildren, on his death-bed -- and they went and retrieved it. Thus, a new human ancestor -- perhaps our own closest-in-time prior-relative (but not yet "us"), emerged from the mists of long forgotten time -- time out of mind. Grinning. . . in amazement.
