Female Homo habilis
Female Homo habilis. Artists impression of a female Homo habilis holding her young and plucking fruit from a tree. H. habilis was an ancestor of modern humans that lived between around 2.1 and 1.6 million years ago. " Habilis" means " handy", and refers to the supposed tool-making abilities of these hominids. Their brains were small though, with a cranium volume of around 700 cubic centimetres (compared to around 1350cc for modern humans)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library takes us back in time to the Pleistocene era, showcasing an artist's impression of a female Homo habilis. With her young nestled safely in her arms, she delicately plucks fruit from a towering tree. This illustration offers a glimpse into the world of our ancient ancestors who lived between 2.1 and 1.6 million years ago. Homo habilis, meaning "handy" earned its name due to its supposed tool-making abilities. However, despite their remarkable skills, these hominids had relatively small brains compared to modern humans, with a cranium volume of around 700 cubic centimeters. The maternal bond depicted here highlights the nurturing nature that has been passed down through generations of primates and ultimately shaped our own biology as modern humans evolved over time. This artwork serves as a reminder of our shared ancestry and the complex journey that led us to where we are today. As we explore this prehistoric scene captured by paleontologists and anthropologists alike, it sparks curiosity about early human life and ignites discussions surrounding human evolution and our place within the vast tapestry of existence. Let this image transport you back millions of years as you ponder the wonders hidden within our collective past.
