What can you tell me about early hominid discoveries?
I’ve got me a test tomorrow! Let’s see if there is anything I’m forgetting. Things I need to know is location of discoveries, and who discovered them.

Oh boy I get to do your homework for you!
Louis Leakey
Australopithecus Afarensis
Piltdown Man
Y5
Foramen magnum
…it’s been a while, but I expect if your class is anything like mine those should be on your list.
@fundevogel Not familiar with Y5. Nor are we studying the Piltdown Man scandal. But yes the rest are good thanks! I’ll def remember that. @RealEyesRealizeRealLies Haha, stop trolling with your smart allek ways. I’m not turning in homework, I’m studying up for a test.
@whitetigress If I remember correctly Y5 refers to a pattern unique to hominid teeth. Since teeth are more resilient than other bones they will survive longer than everything else. The pattern is significant because even when you don’t have any other part of the creature with those teeth you can tell if it was a hominid or not.
But I guess your teacher/prof hasn’t talked about that yet.
