Pleistocene-Era Hominins and Archaeology Evolution and Paleontology Studies Primate Behavior and Ecology

Abstract

There is much discussion among anthropologists about the number of taxa that lived shortly after the human lineage diverged from that of chimpanzees. In his Perspective, [Begun][1] discusses a recent hominid fossil find in the Middle Awash region of Ethiopia that suggests there may have been more diversity among the first humans than previously thought ([ Haile-Selassie et al ][2].).
