Fossil WLH-50 is a partial cranium fossil that was discovered in 1982, in the Willandra Lakes Region of Australia and was reconstructed by Alan Thorne. Speculation surrounds the exact age of this fossil hominid and a debate concerning its ancestry in relation to other late Pleistocene hominids, as well as, Ngandong hominids due to their close resemblance to one another. == Characteristics == It has been said that WLH-50 has many of the same features as ''Homo erectus'', but some of WLH-50's most notable characteristics include: * Thick Brow Ridge * Unusually thick, dense cranial vault – 15–19 millimetres thick (supposed adaptation to Malaria) * Cranial Capacity – 1590cc * Extended Nuchal Area for muscle attachment * Occipital Bun * Robust size 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「WLH-50」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
