Homo erectus foothprints of 1,5 Millions Y old.
Very good sample...well presented.

There is also a theory about the evolution of hominides to slowly become homus Erectus and then Abilis and then Neanderthalicus...and then Sapiens and then Sapiens-Sapiens....as we now are defined by antropologists.

Small group here and another small group there in a completely different environment-continent and different time frame....

NO strait forwards evolution.....a kind of 'homo tree...'....with leaves appearing and disappearing...here and there but always part of a tree done with branches...and leaves.

Why is that ?? we do not know.....but it makes sense with the findings...and foothprints...dispersed in an apparently erratic way...both in space and time domains.

Great moovie-snap shot...rather interesting....

1,5 MY seems much for 'erectus'...but with the 'homo tree theory' you never know...it may be correct.

Good article ...regards.

* On the river banks of Paluxi (Glen Rose, Texas), the archeologist Carl Baugh from the State University from Pennsylvania discovered the footsteps of a man near those of a dinosaur... Talking about the importance of such discoveries, Dr. A. E. Wilder Smith, from the University of Illinois (U.S.A.), said the following: "A single print of a dinosaur or brontosaur found in the same place of a single human footstep is enough to unsettle the Darwinism and to revolutionize contemporary biology:

* The Guardian (21 January 2009) - Charles Darwin was wrong about the tree of life - Evolutionary biologists say crossbreeding between species is far more common than previously thought, making a nonsense of the idea of discrete evolutionary branches:
