“1.2 million years older than the skeleton of Lucy”

Partial reconstruction of Ardi, a 4.4 million-year-old Ardipithecus ramidus, the oldest known hominid skeleton.

Update: UPI claims Kent State University Professor C. Owen Lovejoy insists they evolved from us, not we from they!

Update: Maybe a more accurate interpretation is Kent State University Professor C. Owen Lovejoy insists we didn't evolve from Ardipithecus ramidus, both we and they evolved from a common ancestor.

Where UPI evolved from, nobody's saying.
