HALABELLA | Australopithecus garhi @halabella6 | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
Australopithecus garhi.This species is not well documented as it is defined on the basis of one fossil cranium and four other skull fragments, although a partial skeleton found nearby, from about the same layer, is usually included as part of the Australopithecus garhi sample.But every species, well documented or not, deserves a video right, so here we are.
Although similar to other australopithecines, it displayed some surprising features. Individuals had long ape-like arms, small brain of about 450cc, robust cranial, facial and dental characteristicsand human like longer legs which suggests a change toward longer strides during bipedal walking. The fossils are significant as they help fill the period between 2 and 3 million years ago; a time with a poor human fossil record.
