• it is meaningful to paleoanthropology. the discovery at the site "indicates that Peking Man lived about 700, 000 to 200,000 years ago. The average brain volume of these people was 1,088 ml (the average for modern people is 1,400 ml). And it is estimated that their average height reached 156 centimeter (5.1 feet) for males and 150 centimeter (4.9 feet) for females. "
