That makes it the northernmost evidence of Paranthropus by 1,000 kilometres (600 miles). Moreover, we’re learning ...

But this latest discovery seems to challenge that. It appears that Paranthropus had greater dietary flexibility than first interpreted, could adapt to a wide range of environmental conditions and was ...

エチオピア北東部で発見された、約260万年前に絶滅したパラントロプス（ Paranthropus ）と呼ばれるホミニン（hominin）の化石は、当時この地域に生息していたホミニンの種数を増やすものである。今週の Nature に掲載されるこの発見は、人類の古代の親類であるパラントロプスの分布と適応力に光を当てるものである。

Ethiopia’s Afar region has stood out in the study of human evolution for its vast array of hominin fossils, from some of the earliest known Homo sapiens dating to 160,000 years, to hominins dating as ...

In a paper published in Nature, a team led by University of Chicago paleoanthropologist Professor Zeresenay Alemseged reports ...

A rare fossil discovery in Ethiopia has pushed the known range of Paranthropus hundreds of miles farther north than ever before. The 2.6-million-year-old jaw suggests this ancient relative of humans ...

The newly described specimen is a partial left mandible plus a molar crown, dated to about 2.6 million years ago using multiple methods, making it one of the oldest Paranthropus fossils known. The ...

人類の古代の近縁種であるパラントロプス・ボイセイ（Paranthropus boisei）に属する150万年前の新たな化石群には、この種に明確に関連付けられる手の骨が含まれており、ホミニン（hominin；ヒト族）の手の進化に関する知見を提供する。Nature にオープン ...

Learn how a 2.6-million-year-old Paranthropus jaw from Ethiopia’s Afar region is reshaping scientists’ understanding of early ...

A recently discovered fossil dating back 2.6 million years could fundamentally change our understanding of human evolution and put a long-standing mystery to rest, a new study has found. The fossil, ...

The first fossil hominins were discovered at the beginning of the 20th century in South Africa, just over half a century after the publication of Darwin’s milestone work The Origin of Species ...
