Lucy long ago : uncovering the mystery of where we came

Thimmesh, Catherine

Publié en 2009

Livre
Documentaire

Provides an account of the discovery of Lucy, a pile of forty-seven bones found in Hadar, Ethiopia, that was eventually revealed to be a new species of hominid. Illustrated in full color throughout with stunning compuer-generated artwork and with rare paleo photography, this story of scientific sleuthing invites us to wonder what our ancestors were like. From the discovery of Lucy's bones in Hadar, Ethiopia, to the process of recovering and interpreting them (a multidisciplinary approach with contributions from paleontologists, paleoanthropologists, archeologists, geologists and geochronologists), this book shows how a pile of 47 bones led scientists to discover a new -- and, at 3.2 million years old, a very very old -- species of hominid, ancestral to humans.
