The find underscores a theory about where modern humans came from.
Co-author Professor Ayla Sevim Erol at Ankara University continued: “We have no limb bones but judging from its jaws and teeth, the animals found alongside it, and the geological indicators of the environment, Anadoluvius probably lived in relatively open conditions, unlike the forest settings of living great apes.
Although African apes today are only known from Africa, as are the earliest known humans, the study’s authors concluded that the ancestors of both came from Europe and the eastern Mediterranean. The study’s detailed analysis also reveals that the Balkan and Anatolian apes evolved from ancestors in western and central Europe.
Prof Begun said: “There is no evidence of the latter, though it remains a favourite proposal among those who do not accept a European origin hypothesis.
