Our Oldest Ancestor Discovered in Ethiopia

She is called Selam. It means "Peace" in Ethiopian.She died three million years ago, when Ethiopia was lush green land of rivers and trees.Se was able to move through trees like an ape and walk like a human.

She is only three. Could she talk? Well that we do not know as yet. buthe tales she is telling right now can unravel a numberof scientific mysteries.

It took scientists five years to remove the bones from sandstone, and the job will take years more to finish. So far it is known that she had a human-like lower body, a gorilla's shoulders and the hands of a chimp.

Only Selam, this three year old kid, can now enlighten us on how and why we started walking on two and explain the evolution from four to two limbs.
