EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Homo heidelbergensis skull, also known as Cranium 5 or Miguelon. Excavated in 1992 from the Sima de los Huesos pit in Spain's Atapuerca foothills, this fossilized skull is estimated to be around 400,000 years old. The individual it belonged to suffered from a severe bone infection caused by broken teeth, resulting in significant facial deformity. Homo heidelbergensis is an extinct species that holds a crucial place on the human evolutionary tree. It could potentially be an ancestor of both Neanderthals and modern humans. This photograph provides us with a glimpse into our ancient past and highlights the remarkable journey of human evolution. The image captures the skull against a black background, emphasizing its intricate features. With its profile view and focus on teeth and eye sockets, it offers valuable insights into the biology and anatomy of our prehistoric ancestors. Displayed as part of a museum exhibit or scientific study, this photograph serves as a powerful reminder of our shared history with these early hominids. It symbolizes our continuous quest for knowledge about human origins through fields such as anthropology and paleontology. Javier Trueba skillfully captured this still life image using studio lighting techniques. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness one individual's struggle against adversity while contributing to humanity's rich tapestry of existence.
