Hey people! This is another post that we had to do for homework in humanities class. We are currently learnin why people study archaeology, its techniques and the basics. Enjoy! A group of archaeologists recently discovered two two million year old primate that has been proved to have be related to humans. There is one roughly thirty year old female and another teenage male. It seems they both fell into an ancient chasm which was also responsible for countless other animals, as was proven by the countless animal bones littered around the chasm. Unlike other skeletons found from our ancestors these ones have a presision grip wich means that the thumb is longer than usual which means that they would be able to use tools. Another human trait found on these skeletons was the pelvis and the feet suggest that they would have been able to walk but they would also climb trees. At 1.2 meters tall they are also quite short. So as you can see thanks to this discovery we now know a lot more about our ancestors.
