Orang-outang, sive homo sylvestris: or, The anatomy of a pygmie compared with that of a monkey, an ape, and a man. To which is added, A philological essay concerning the pygmies, the cynocephali, the satyrs, and sphinges of the ancients. Wherein it will appear that they are all either apes or monkeys, and not men, as formerly pretended
Edward Tyson's 1699 London treatise compares the anatomy of a pygmy, a monkey, an ape and a man, printed for T. Bennett and D. Brown for a learned readership. Its engraved plates show full-length flayed and skeletal figures alongside brain views and small ape-like and human-like figures, offering a clear model for dissection-style diagrams, anatomical study charts, and comparative skeletal layouts.
