Foot bones discovered in Burtle, Ethiopia

ethiopianunitydiasporaforum.com

A team of scientists announces the discovery of a 3.4 million-year-old partial foot from the Woranso-Mille area of the Afar region of Ethiopia. The fossil foot did not belong to "Lucy's" species, Australopithecus afarensis, the famous early human ancestor. Research on this new specimen indicates that more than one species of early human ancestor existed between 3 and 4 million years ago with different methods of locomotion. The analysis will be published in the March 29, 2012 issue of the journal Nature.The partial foot was found in February 2009 in an area known as Burtele.
