Here is a chart showing humans and their ancestors.

Thanks, Coyote! Any chance you could explain to me why the skulls seem to be front-views and side views? I'm assuming that the vertical scale is time.

Thanks,

Also, what would the authoritative source be for learning more about these different finds, hopefully available via the web?

I would like to be able to read where the bones were found, read the dimensions, and see photos of the actual bones and know which part were found and which part were filled with plaster. I'd also like to know how many of each species were found, and where. I did search for Afarensis and found a photo of a skull that was about half plaster and had been reconstructed from fragments. But I'm assuming that other bones were also found.

I could just go search google, but I might come across a site which wasn't accurate or whatever -- so I might as well start out in the right place.

Thanks, -Jesse
