AI synopsis

What people are saying

Several comments highlight that the fossils are now believed to be over a million years older, with phrases like 'rethink everything,' 'shake up the hominin tree,' and 'reconfigure the role of South Africa,' reflecting excitement and the potential paradigm shift. The use of words like 'exciting,' 'stunning,' and 'rethink' indicates a tone of enthusiasm and the importance of this research, contributing to a perception of high impact and interest.

AgreementModerate agreement

Most posts support the revised dating results, emphasizing that the fossils are older than previously thought and challenge earlier estimates.

InterestHigh interest

Discussions show high curiosity, with many expressing fascination about the new findings and their implications.

EngagementHigh engagement

Posts delve into the methods and significance, referencing the cosmogenic nuclide dating technique and its revolutionary impact on understanding human evolution.

ImpactHigh impact

The general tone suggests the discovery could significantly alter the timeline of hominin evolution, indicating high perceived impact.

Abstract in brief

  • The study reports cosmogenic nuclide burial dates ranging from approximately 341 to 361 million years ago for fossils and deposits at Sterkfontein, placing them in the mid-Pliocene period, which is contemporaneous with East Africa fossils.
  • The newly obtained dates are significantly older than previous estimates based on flowstone ages (around 21 to 26 million years), and the study finds that earlier flowstone dates were inaccurate because the flowstones were stratigraphically intrusive, thus underestimating the true age of the fossils.
  • These findings suggest that the fossils from Sterkfontein, including important specimens like StW 573, are much older than previously thought, providing new insights into the timing of hominin evolution and fossil record in South Africa.
