New fossil discovery of an early human ancestor reveals that it walked upright, just like #humans
Remarkable new #fossils from Swartkrans Cave reveal that a prehistoric relative of humans was also extremely small and vulnerable to predators.

- wondering where the time threshold is for calling them "it".

EurekAlert!New fossil discovery of an early human ancestor reveals that it walked upright, just like humansA team of international researchers affiliated to the Evolutionary Studies Institute at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits University), in South Africa indicates in new research that a group of fossils belong to a single, young adult Paranthropus robustus. The fossil not only demonstrates that the species was, like modern humans, a habitual upright walker, but also confirms it was also extremely small.

Prehistoric bone tool ‘factory’ hints at early development of abstract reasoning in human ancestors
The oldest collection of mass-produced prehistoric bone tools reveal that #humanAncestors were likely capable of more advanced abstract reasoning one million years earlier than thought, finds a new study involving researchers at UCL and CSIC.

Our latest paper, analysing the teeth of an early modern human child from Morocco, associated with the Aterian lithic industry, is finally out open access at the AJBA!

Results show affinities with early modern humans despite their very large size, similar to our analysis of the facial fragment of the same individual published in 2022.

If you like thinking and learning about human prehistory, you'll like this interview with geneticist David Reich. Two hours on what research tells us about human origins, how modern humans relate to Neanderthals and Denisovans, ancient DNA, ancient epidemics, admixture, how genetics informs archaeology, and the spread of the Yamnaya from the steppes.

The DNA of 'Thorin,' one of the last Neanderthals, has been sequenced, shedding light on inbreeding and 50,000 years of genetic isolation. This discovery paints a vivid picture of Neanderthal decline, offering new insights into their final days and their legacy in our genome. #Neanderthals #AncientDNA #HumanEvolution

New fossil evidence reveals that Neanderthals cared for a 6-year-old with Down syndrome, challenging stereotypes of these ancient humans. This discovery highlights their capacity for empathy, social bonds, and care for individuals with special needs. A profound reminder of shared humanity across millennia. #Neanderthals #HumanEvolution #Archaeology

Early humans thrived on carbs to develop smarter brains 🌱🧠✨

Forget the paleo myth that meat fuelled human brain development—research shows that carbohydrates played a far more crucial role! Studies reveal:

✅ Early humans consumed starch-rich diets over 100,000 years ago, providing the glucose essential for brain growth.

✅ Genetic evidence of starch digestion dates back 800,000+ years, well before agriculture.

✅ Ancient populations relied heavily on plant-based foods.

The science is clear: plants powered the evolution of human intelligence. 🌱💡

Human ancestor thrived longer in harsher conditions than previous estimates

#HomoErectus, the first of our relatives to have human-like proportions and the first known early human to migrate out of Africa,
successfully navigated harsher and more arid terrains for longer in Eastern Africa than previously thought, according to a new study

EurekAlert!Human ancestor thrived longer in harsher conditions than previous estimatesAn early human ancestor of our species successfully navigated harsher and more arid terrains for longer in Eastern Africa than previously thought, according to a new study. Homo erectus, the first of our relatives to have human-like proportions and the first known early human to migrate out of Africa, was the focus of the new study led by the international research team.

Three million years ago, our ancestors were #vegetarian
Nitrogen isotopes in tooth enamel show no evidence of meat consumption in #Australopithecus

EurekAlert!Three million years ago, our ancestors were vegetarianHuman ancestors like Australopithecus – which lived around 3.5 million years ago in southern Africa – ate very little to no meat, according to new research published in the scientific journal Science. This conclusion comes from an analysis of nitrogen isotope isotopes in the fossilized tooth enamel of seven Australopithecus individuals. The data revealed that these early hominins primarily relied on plant-based diets, with little to no evidence of meat consumption.
