Ancient Footprints Reveal Shared Landscape in Kenya

1.5 million years ago, in Kenya's Turkana Basin, fossilized footprints reveal a surprising story of coexistence.

Two distinct hominin species, Paranthropus boisei and Homo erectus, left their marks on the same ancient lakeside.

This remarkable discovery provides direct evidence of these species inhabiting the same area within days of each other.

Researchers suggest that these early human relatives likely coexisted peacefully, sharing resources in the same environment.
