For the first time, we found fossils that allow us to connect the first phase of human evolution and the second phase.

All (three species) were able to be found in one place, proving that evolution is a fact. Successive records that we see here prove that the Afar region is the origin of human kind.

Dating to just over four million years ago, the fossils represent unambiguous evidence for human evolution.

It is the only place in the world where the three phases of evolution could be documented and proved.

Unless biology is geared toward an evolution perspective, we are going to a dead-end. Our science courses have to be geared toward evolution ...[and] science education has to be religion-free.

Those early humans fed on soft material such as fruits. Their teeth did not have a thick enamel.
