Hizi nyayo aliacha Homo ergaster au ukipenda early Homo erectus. Zinapatikana Ileret kaskazini mwa Kenya. Ni nyayo mzee zaidi kuwahi kupatikana na zinakadiriwa kuwa na umri wa miaka milioni moja nukta tano.
These resemble the oldest known footprints of human ancestors as found in Laetoli, Tanzania and dated about 3.75 million years ago. They are believed to be made by a much more primitive human ancestor called Australopithecus: http://www.nature.com/news/2008/080109/full/451118a.html
How does this change our history as homo sapiens? I think these prints should definately be in a museum, where they will not be subject to natural, animal- or human-inflicted erosion.
It’s nice to see some ancient-ancient history being discussed here. Especially since Lucy belongs to East Africa!
