Muddy footprints found beside Lake Turkana, Kenya reveal two ancient hominin species were once neighbors 1.5 million years ago.

Scientists discovered fossilized footprints along Lake Turkana, Kenya, revealing that early human ancestors Homo erectus and Paranthropus boisei coexisted around 1.5 million years ago. The distinct footprints show different walking styles,

Found at Koobi Fora near Lake Turkana, the footprints show that *Paranthropus boisei* and *Homo erectus* shared the same habitat, offering new insights into their coexistence and evolutionary paths.**

Human footprints stir the imagination. They invite you to follow, to guess what someone was doing and where they were going. Fossilized footprints preserved in rock do the same—they record instances in the lives of many different extinct organisms,

By Alimat Aliyeva Anthropologists from the United States and Europe have discovered footprints of Paranthropus and early humans, or Hom

Muddy footprints left on a Kenyan lakeside suggest two of our early human ancestors were neighbors some 1.5 million years ago.

Researchers discovered 1.5-million-year-old footprints in Kenya's Turkana Basin, revealing coexistence of Paranthropus boisei and Homo erectus. The prints, showing distinct walking patterns, provide direct evidence of the two species' interaction and environment,

The discovery comes as the government seeks to raise the number of tourists visiting the country to 10 million annually by 2027.

About 1.5 million years ago, individuals of two different species in the human evolutionary lineage trudged on a muddy lakeshore in northern Kenya, leaving behind intersecting trackways alongside the footprints of antelopes,

Ancient footprints discovered in Kenya belong to two different species of human relatives who walked on the same ground at the same time 1.5 million years ago, a study found.
