Muddy footprints found beside Lake Turkana, Kenya reveal two ancient hominin species were once neighbors 1.5 million years ago.

Muddy footprints left on a Kenyan lakeside suggest two of our early human ancestors were neighbors some 1.5 million years ago.

Researchers discovered 1.5-million-year-old footprints in Kenya's Turkana Basin, revealing coexistence of Paranthropus boisei and Homo erectus. The prints, showing distinct walking patterns, provide direct evidence of the two species' interaction and environment,

Intersecting paths of muddy footprints left on a Kenyan lakeside 1.5 million years ago suggest two of our early human ancestors were nearby neighbours.

Found at Koobi Fora near Lake Turkana, the footprints show that *Paranthropus boisei* and *Homo erectus* shared the same habitat, offering new insights into their coexistence and evolutionary paths.**

Scientists discovered fossilized footprints along Lake Turkana, Kenya, revealing that early human ancestors Homo erectus and Paranthropus boisei coexisted around 1.5 million years ago. The distinct footprints show different walking styles,

(Reuters) - About 1.5 million years ago, individuals of two different species in the human evolutionary lineage trudged on a muddy lakeshore in northern Kenya, leaving behind intersecting trackways alongside the footprints of antelopes, horses, warthogs, giant storks and other animals.

A discovery in northern Kenya hints that two extinct species that were our ancient relatives shared the same habitat and possibly interacted.

By Alimat Aliyeva Anthropologists from the United States and Europe have discovered footprints of Paranthropus and early humans, or Hom

Two species of ancient human relatives crossed paths 1.5 million years ago. Fossilized footprints in Kenya captured the moment, according to a new study.
