Specimens of early Barstovian age from the Trinity River Pit 1 quarry, Texas, and of late Barstovian age from Deep Creek, Nebraska, are utilized to corroborate the association of upper and lower dentitions of the Echo Quarry sample to Merychippus insignis. A revised definition of Cormohipparion is utilized. Cormohipparion goorisi is characterized on the basis of cranial and dental information based on material from Trinity River Pit 1, Texas (early Barstovian). Based on these species, Merychippus and Cormohipparion are distinctly different taxa.","PeriodicalId":240276,"journal":{"name":"Thermodynamics and Phase Transformations","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129966565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the beginning of time, fertility has been deeply imbedded in the human experience and expressed throughout the ages by all cultures in symbolic art. In trying to decipher the atavistic meanings given to fertility, it is essential to consider the hostile world in which our progenitors struggled and eventually thrived. The population of the earth is an incredible success story. No species have ever so dominated the earth as have humans. Fertility has always been the central theme of our ancestors. In many ways, cancer, as a life-threatening disease, brings people back to their most basic and primitive selves.","PeriodicalId":240276,"journal":{"name":"Thermodynamics and Phase Transformations","volume":"17 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1960-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130069647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
