Few fossil samples preserve evidence of the postcranial skeleton in abundance, but Homo naledi from the Dinaledi Chamber is one of them. These fossils are only around 250,000 years old, but the scapula resembles some of the earliest known hominins.

One of the branches of the tree can be traced today as far as 4.1 million years ago, at Kanapoi, Kenya. Here, the track becomes unclear. What was the origin of the Australopithecus line, and how does it connect to fossils like Ardipithecus?

Oho how do I choose?? Uhh, how about two faves?

Vetris Lumois is my oldest character creation wise, and is one awful AI put onto the resuscitated body of a seadweller.

Basalt Pteran is a thousands of sweeps old, a paleontologist and has had a lifelong hyper-fixation on fossils!

Well they're not fossils, but we've already got a mammoth, and those things only went extinct 3700 years ago. At this rate, there'll be human-based Fossil Pokemon a few generations from now lol. Now that I think about it, a Neanderthal Pokemon would actually be pretty awesome.

138 - Omanyte
Type: Rock/Water

In prehistoric times, it swam on the sea floor, eating plankton. Its fossils are sometimes found.

Some fossils can become pyrite, a form of mineral mistaken with gold. This happens mostly to precrambrian fossils, like ammonites and trilobites, so I made this of & with pyrite shells, both are water/steel type

since hair can't be preserved in fossils we can't rule out the possibility that Fossil Pokemons looked like this

Hi! I’m Shanley and I guess I like to draw anatomy and fossils. Happy !

Students of evolution quickly pick up the differences between big-toothed Paranthropus boisei and our genus, Homo. Yet there are still anatomical overlaps between these lineages that make some of the fossils from Koobi Fora challenging to interpret.

A lonely Diplodocus longus (double beam) crosses a mirror-like flooded salt flat. Classifies as Saurischia, Sauropodomorpha, Sauropoda, Diplodocidae, Diplodocinae. Its fossils were first discovered in 1877 by Benjamin Franklin Mudge and Samuel Wendell

Fossils of Australopithecus and Homo were all obligate bipeds, but their pelvic remains do exhibit some differences. Australopithecus sediba blurs the boundary. With its Homo-like pelvis, this species may be a closer human relative.

reading about gigantopithecus, the largest ape to ever live. fossils indicate it stood as high as 10 feet and weighed up to 1,100 pounds

PokéNection Porygon is a fossil??

Cinnabar Lab created Porygon as the first artificial pokemon from data and introduces fossil pokémon. Defossilisation is explained to convert fossils to data and data to pokemon.

Porygon's invention paved the way for fossil pokémon.

Uncovering more evidence that modern humans arose amid great genetic and morphological diversity in Africa, we look at fossils like the Eliye Springs skull with new eyes. Found in reworked deposits, the age of this ancient-looking skull is unknown.

"Fossils are so HUGE and AWESOME! I hope I grow up to be a fossil someday, yip yip!"

Today’s Animal Crossing villager I decided to draw is Bones! 🐶🦴🤎🤍

I hope you all like and enjoy, and I’d love to hear your feedback. 😃💕

In the earliest days, Dinoland would have featured a very different E ticket attraction. The Excavator was a “wooden” coaster that twisted through the Boneyard, careening through fossils and past dinosaur sculptures made from old excavating equipment.

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.
