EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by Maurice Wilson depicts Sivapithecus indicus, a significant primate species from the Miocene epoch, around 13 million years ago. Sivapithecus indicus, also known as the thick-coated enamelled ape, was discovered in Turkey and Indo-Pakistan. This primate is considered a hominid, a member of the great ape family, and part of the superfamily Hominoidea, which includes modern apes and humans. Sivapithecus indicus is an important figure in the evolutionary tree of primates, as it is believed to be an early hominoid, a primate that is more closely related to hominids, including Homo sapiens, than to other primate groups. This primate is characterized by its robust build, thick enamel on its teeth, and a coat of hair. Maurice Wilson's illustration captures the essence of this prehistoric creature, providing a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the evolutionary history of primates and humans. The illustration is a testament to Wilson's skill as an artist, as he brings to life a creature that once roamed the earth during the Cenozoic era, a time when the first placental mammals began to emerge. This illustration is a valuable resource for researchers, students, and anyone interested in the natural world and the history of life on earth. It is a reminder of the rich diversity of life that has existed throughout the Phanerozoic Con, the period of time characterized by the presence of fossilized remains, and the ongoing process of evolution that continues to shape the world around us.
