The third sentence -- not including the out-of-context quotes from Charles Darwin -- is "Nearly 150 years later, there has been no evidence of evolutionary transition found thus far in the fossil record." This statement is demonstratably false.

You are correct. Here is a nice transitional (I hope posting data in the Religion Forum is OK). Note its position in the chart which follows (hint--in the upper center):

---

Discovered By: B. Ngeneo, 1975 (1)

Estimated Age of Fossil: 1.75 mya * determined by Stratigraphic, faunal, paleomagnetic & radiometric data (1, 4)

Species Name: Homo ergaster (1, 7, 8), Homo erectus (3, 4, 7), Homo erectus ergaster (25)

Gender: Female (species presumed to be sexually dimorphic) (1, 8)

Cranial Capacity: 850 cc (1, 3, 4)

Information: Tools found in same layer (8, 9). Found with KNM-ER 406 A. boisei (effectively eliminating single species hypothesis) (1)

Your chart notes "This family tree is a best guess."

Keep guessing!
