Lapouge (1899) established Homo priscus in reference to pre-sapiens populations exemplified by Laugerie and Chancelade (footnote p. 16; figures 9 and 10 on pp. 169, 170; and text on p. 170 and after). Campbell (1965) fixed Chancelade as the lectotype and recognized Homo priscus Lapouge, 1899 as available and valid.
