ANOTHER APE MAN “MAY BE OUSTED FROM THE HUMAN
FAMILY”, according to Science News 23 April 2017. In 2010 a “remarkably
complete” skeleton of Australopithecus sediba found in Malapa, South
Africa, dated as 1.98 million years old, was proclaimed as “best candidate” for
a direct human ancestor. Palaeoanthropologists Bill Kimbel of Arizona State
University and Yoel Rak of Tel Aviv University in Israel have now carried out a
detailed study of the most complete A. sediba skull and concluded it
was not a human ancestor, but much more like the South African Australopithecine
A. africanus, a species that lived in South Africa 3 million to 2.3
million years ago, and considered to be an extinct sideline on the human family
tree.
ED. COM. We agree this not a human ancestor, but neither is any Australopithecine, including the most famous of all – Lucy (Australopithecus afarensis). As we have said many times, Australopithecines were just extinct apes that never had any connection with humans. Creation Research.
