What were Australopitheciny?

Australopithecus is a genus of extinct hominides that lived in Africa about 4.2 million to about 1 million years. It is still uncertain whether Australopithecins were a direct ancestor of people or whether the family Homo (to which people belong) were divided from the increasingly ecor family of hominid. Australopithecins They were more than human, costing 1-1.2 m (3.3-3.9 ft) tall, with a small brain measuring between 370 and 515 cubic centimeters (146-203 inches). This is only about 35% of the size of the modern human brain. Australopitheciny were mostly bipedal, but not very intelligent, which had only a very primitive tool industry. Types Australopithecines include a. Afarensis , a. Africanus , a. p. Boisei , p. Robustus and p.

TEPThe first complete Australopithecine skull was discovered in 1994. In 1974, the "Lucy" sample a. Africanus was discovered on the highway of ethiopia depression, 40% complete fossil, which was one of the first to be the name of the household. The discovery of this fossil and its surrounding story has become part of many secondary and secondary school curriculum, which was referred to as the key part of the evidence that people had evolved from chimpanzees.

Australopithecins are often referred to as the first hominide genus that has developed bipedism. This allowed the animal to stand upright and get a better view of its surroundings, which allowed him to see predators over tall grass. This was the importance of a step in moving the hominid line from the life of the jungle to the savannah. Australopithecins lived primarily in an Epoch, which is 5.3 million to 1.8 million years ago.

for many tenThe creationists called the Australopithecines just another type of chimpanzees, although most of the educated world has long rejected this view. Australopins have anatomical features characterized by chimpanzees and humans and are one of the most strongly studied fossil sets in hominide paleontology. One of the features of the most commonly referred to as human is the Australopithecins teeth.
