Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cast of the skull of a juvenile Australopithecus sediba on display in the Hall of Human Origins in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. Australopithecus sediba was discovered on August 15, 2008, by nine year old Matthew Berger on the Malapa Nature Reserve in South Africa. The name Australopithecus means "southern ape", while the name sediba means "spring" in the language of the Sotho people. Australopithecus sediba lived about 2 million years ago. It had a modern-like hand, and a pelvis more suited to walking that its upright ape-like ancestors. It had a brain about one-third the size of modern humans, and may have created simple tools.
