Many of the most important fossils of human relatives are distorted or fragmented. TM 1517 is the holotype of Paranthropus robustus, found in 1938. Here I've done a reconstruction by mirror-imaging the parts that survived fossilization and erosion.

Il y a 2 Ma, ils cohabitaient en Afrique avec Australopithecus.

Dos cráneos de Drimolen-Sudáfrica de 2 Ma: DNH 134 es el H erectus más antiguo, contemporáneo con Australopithecus sediba y Paranthropus robustus, al que corresponde el otro cráneo DNH 152. ¿Cuál es cuál? Al parántropo se le reconoce por su cresta sagital.

A recent discovery of a Paranthropus robustus cranium (notice the sagittal crest) at the Drimolen site in South Africa confirms that species of Austalopithecus, Paranthropus, and early Homo overlapped in South Africa ~2mil years ago DOI: 10.1126/science.aaw7293

fourth is KNM-ER 17400. This is a skull, eroded on the front, that has been attributed to Paranthropus boisei. The individual lived around 1.8 million years ago. At around 390 ml, its brain is one of the smallest in the hominin fossil record.

Well, took me a while to get around to tidying it up, and colouring it, but here's Sahelanthropus wielding a Mare's Leg; thought it was fitting, since it's the gun Skull Face has!
