Miocene_Mason Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Very interesting, this is one of my favorite subjects. Good to see that paleoanthropological research is happening more vigorously in the area. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
