Expanded geographic distribution and dietary strategies of the earliest Oldowan hominins and Paranthropus

Expanded geographic distribution and dietary strategies of the earliest Oldowan hominins and Paranthropus

The oldest Oldowan tool sites, from around 2.6 million years ago, have previously been confined to Ethiopia's Afar Triangle. We describe sites at Nyayanga, Kenya, dated to 3.032 to 2.581 million years ago and expand this distribution by over 1300 kilometers. Furthermore, we found two hippopotam...
