EDITORS COMMENTS
This reproduction showcases the fossilized bones of a female Australopithecus afarensis, commonly known as "Lucy," discovered in 1974 at Hadar in Ethiopia's Afar Depression in the Awash Valley. Unearthed by an international team led by Donald Johanson, this ancient hominid, with the catalog number AL 288-1, is considered one of the most significant discoveries in human prehistory. Dating back approximately 3.1 million years, Lucy represents an early hominid, a transitional species between apes and humans. Her skeleton, which includes a nearly complete pelvis, a partial skull, and an almost complete skeleton of the right side of her body, provides invaluable insights into the anatomy and locomotion of early humans. The discovery of Lucy and her species has revolutionized our understanding of human evolution, revealing that our ancestors walked upright long before previously believed. This reproduction serves as a testament to the rich history of human prehistory and the fascinating journey of our ancestors from their origins as primates to the emergence of modern humans. Currently, this precious fossil is on display at the Atapuerca Museum in Burgos, Spain, as part of the exhibition "A Million Years," inviting visitors to explore the wonders of prehistoric times and the remarkable story of human evolution.
