indicating that early humans did not need big brains to journey out of Africa.

There is a joke in there somewhere........

"This is astonishing. If you looked hard enough you could probably find a gorilla with a brain that big. They may have been pinheads but below the neck they would have looked largely human," he said.

If they only have a skull, how can they make the statement that they would have looked largely human?

How old was this? 1.75 or 0.8 million years?

Not meaning to sound politically incorrect, but perhaps this particular specimen looked like a "pinhead" because it was a pinhead!

Of course it could not be just an ape from a time when the climate of this region was altogether different. It HAS to be prehuman. No links. No other bones. But they KNOW it was human.

I revere the ground on which these hallowed scientists tred. Thank Gaia that true science has supplanted the Creationist loonies.

They had enough brains to get out of Africa, but they still couldn't be trained to push a stylus through a chad.

The difference in size between this skull and two much bigger skulls and jawbones found with it suggests either that two species lived at the site or that the difference in size between males and females was once much bigger than it is in modern humans.

Could have been a child, but then paleontologists only think of headlines, not the truth.

I LOVE this website.

When I saw the header for this article in the right-hand column, I thought to myself, "I wonder how many postings will pass before somebody claims the skull came from a Demoncrat", and I answered myself, "It'll be there in the *very first response*.

BINGO!!!!!!

I LOVE this website.
