Australopithecus anamensis Right Distal Tibia - KNM-KP-29285B

KO-136-TD $45.00

Right Distal Tibia of Australopithecus anamensis, KNM-KP-29285B. 3.9-4.2 MYA. Discovered in Kanapoi and Allia Bay, Kenya. Discovered by Mary Leakey's team, including Peter Nzube and Kamoya Kimeu, from 1994 to 1997. A complete morphology by Ward, Leakey and Walker was published in 2001 in the Journal of Human Evolution 41(4), pp. 255-368. It is generally accepted that A. anamensis is older and more primitive than all other Australopithecines, including the well known "Lucy," A. afarensis. The tibia presents characteristics that suggest bipedalism.
