Remarkable Fossil Footprints Show Two Hominin Species Coexisting 1.5 Million Years Ago
A 1.5-million-year-old lakebed from Kenya shows two ancient human relatives cohabitating an environment, shaking up our ancestors' story.
Fossil Footprints Suggest Two Early Human Species Crossed Paths within Hours
Two sets of fossilized footprints from early human species were made within a few hours of each other about 1.5 million years ago, researchers suggest
A fossil first: Scientists find 1.5-million-year-old footprints of two different species of human ancestors at same spot
More than a million years ago, on a hot savanna teeming with wildlife near the shore of what would someday become Lake Turkana in Kenya, two completely different species of hominins may have passed each other as they scavenged for food.
Fossil Footprints in Kenya Show Two Ancient Human Species Coexisted
(Reuters) - About 1.5 million years ago, individuals of two different species in the human evolutionary lineage trudged on a muddy lakeshore in northern Kenya, leaving behind intersecting trackways alongside the footprints of antelopes, horses, warthogs, giant storks and other animals.
Discovery of 1.5 million-year-old footprints shows two different human ancestors lived alongside each other
An international team of researchers said Thursday that they had found two sets of hominin footprints that were made about the same time on an ancient lake’s shore in present-day Kenya. It is, they said, a “fossil first” that offers proof different hominin species lived at the same time and space.
1.5 million-year-old footprints reveal our Homo erectus ancestors lived with a 2nd proto-human species
A set of footprints found at the site of Koobi Fora in Kenya reveals that our ancestor Homo erectus coexisted with a now-extinct bipedal hominin, Paranthropus boisei, 1.5 million years ago.
Fossil footprints place two early human species in the same area at the same time
The discovery offers new insight into human evolution, particularly between the two early human species, known as hominins — a term for a subdivision of hominids. Hominins are all organisms within the human lineage once they split from the ancestors of the great apes, around six to seven million years ago.
Mysterious Human Footprints From 1.5 Million Years Ago Reveal a Surprise
As Homo erectus and Paranthropus boisei – a direct ancestor and an ancestral relative of modern humans, respectively – lived their lives in the Turkana Basin, they left their footprints, impressed deep in the mud around the lake, probably with barely a thought.
Fossil footprints suggest 2 early human species coexisted 1.5 million years ago
Intersecting paths of muddy footprints left on a Kenyan lakeside 1.5 million years ago suggest two of our early human ancestors were nearby neighbours.
Fossilized footprints reveal two extinct hominin species living side by side 1.5 million years ago
Human footprints stir the imagination. They invite you to follow, to guess what someone was doing and where they were going. Fossilized footprints preserved in rock do the same—they record instances in the lives of many different extinct organisms,
