Check out HTTP://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/piltdown.html. You will find some further testing showing the skull to be 600 years old and the jaw 500 years old. Also, there is a list of other fragments,other teeth, Piltdown II, the chemicals they used to stain the bones ect. The dates are debatable, but my point is that it is a clear and purposeful scientific fraud. I don't think anyone believes in Piltdown Man, no matter where they live.

I don't think so either. My point is that Piltdown was suspect from the first. There was a lot of nationalistic support because France had the Cro-Magnons and Germany had the Neanderthals.
