HALABELLA | Ancient Human Ancestors And How They Died @halabella6 | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
So far in our channel we have spoken of so many of our ancestors, how they were found and how they looked like. But did you ever wonder how they ended up in the places they were discovered from? Well, this is the video for that. We are going to name a few of our ancestors and tell you how they probably passed according to the Australian museum.
1.Paranthropus skullcap (SK 54): The teenager probably didn’t see it coming. One moment, they were carrying on with life as usual in South Africa circa 1.8 million years ago. The next, blinding pain, a crunch, and then darkness — dead at the paws of one of prehistory’s greatest carnivores and just like that it became a leopard’s lunch.
A two-million-year-old fossil from Swartkrans in South Africa has provided some interesting information about the death of one young individual. The skullcap has been pierced leaving two small, round holes. These holes have been perfectly matched to the canine teeth in the jaw of an ancient species of leopard.
It seems that a leopard caught the adolescent and dragged its prey up into a tree to eat, just as modern leopards do today. The left-overs from this meal fell out of the tree and dropped into a cavity in the ground below. This cavity was part of a cave system that trapped the debris from many predators’ meals, the bones from which were later preserved as fossils.
