NovaTTT 1 #1 October 1, 2009 The oldest known human ancestor was found in Ethiopia, and is an ancestor of Australopithecus (Lucy), who was also found in Ethiopia. Ardi, as this fossil is known, is 4.4 million years old, and was found among a group of 36 of these creatures. Discovery is airing a program about the discovery on 10/11. It should make interesting viewing. She's an ancestor to us all, perhaps. Take a look.

futuredivot 0 #2 October 1, 2009 I'm calling BS on the age. I woke up with her once when I was between wives. Must have been 12-13 years ago. Seriously-that is way cool. I'll have to beg someone to record it for me.You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkhayes 140 #3 October 1, 2009 not possible. God must have created the relic, then aged them and planted them for us to find so we would endlessly question our existence, which we would never be able to explain so that we would have to then believe in Him. Makes sense to me anyway...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shah269 0 #12 October 2, 2009 As a person with no real home nor sense of belonging I felt at most at home in Africa. I recall my first time there, 25 hour flight, 1 hour in customs, and a few in the back of a car. I got to my hotel room in Cape Town and I was just in desperate need of fresh air. And my hotel in the wine growing region of Cape Town had this large sliding glass door that gave you a great view of false bay. But it was about 1am and you couldn't see a thing. Never the less i needed some air. And as I slid that door open and that tsunami of fresh Air spiced with the essence of Africa hit me for the first time I felt comfortable, I felt as if I was at home. It was the best nights sleep I had ever had. We are all from Africa, we are all brothers, we are all one big family and the sooner we realize that our difference are all imaginary the sooner we can evolve and become better than we are. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

NovaTTT 1 #19 October 2, 2009 Quote Strange question ....why are they always only finding Females? Makes you wonder what happened to the remains of Males!maybe Canibals? They do find males - or at least portions of males. Ardi is very incomplete - they have, I think, the spine and skull, one complete arm and leg, and small portions of the other arm and leg.
