Quote:New fossil evidence seems to confirm that a key ancestor of ours could walk upright consistently - one of the major advances in human evolution.

The evidence comes in the form of a 3.2 million-year-old bone that was found at Hadar, Ethiopia.

Its shape indicates the diminutive, human-like species Australopithecus afarensis had arches in its feet.


Fundies everywhere will be pissing and moaning...as usual.

Nah the Fundies will just dismiss Australopithecus afarensis as just an bipedal savannah dwelling chimp. You forget they often live in another universe mentally as opposed to just another planet.
