We have a fossil closer to our split with Neanderthals and Denisovans

omg i'm so stoked for this discovery !! i mean, can you even imagine what it would've been like to walk among those early humans? 773k years old is mind-blowing! and to think they might've played a role in our split from Neanderthals and Denisovans... the more we learn about our ancestors, the more I'm obsessed . i love how scientists are using fancy tech like geometric morphometry to study these fossils. it's like solving a puzzle that'll reveal the secrets of human evolution . this discovery is giving me all the feels - like, finally, we're getting closer to understanding our own story and where we came from

omg I'm so stoked for this discovery!!! 773k-year-old fossils are like, ancient history! and the fact that they might hold clues about when humans split from Neanderthals & Denisovans is mind-blowing... I mean, we already knew that our ancestors were all related, but to have actual proof of how it happened is just wild . I love how scientists are using new techniques like geometric morphometry to analyze these fossils and try to figure out more about human evolution. this discovery is gonna blow our minds even more when they uncover more secrets from ancient DNA

OMG, can u believe this? They've actually found fossils that might give us clues about when we split from those other hominins ! 773k years old is like, ancient bro . The shapes of their jawbones and teeth are kinda similar to ours, but also super different . It's like they were a bridge between Homo erectus and us . And the fact that they might have diverged from Neanderthals and Denisovans around 800k years ago is wild . I mean, we've only just started studying fossils in Africa, so this is like a major breakthrough . Can't wait to see what other secrets they uncover from ancient DNA !

just thinking about this is giving me goosebumps! i mean, 773k yrs old fossils in morocco? that's like, whoa . it's crazy to think that these hominins might have been a bridge between our species and neanderthals/denisovans. like, what if they had some of the same traits as us but also some super primitive stuff that eventually evolved into our own lineage ? i'm literally dying to know more about these guys and how their evolution relates to ours . can't wait for more discoveries like this!

just thinkin' about this is mind blowin' ... so we're talkin' 773k years old and these hominin fossils are like, right in the middle of when our species is supposed to've diverged from Neanderthals and Denisovans? that's wild. it's like we're lookin' at a puzzle piece that might just fit into how all this human stuff came together ... morocco's got some sweet fossil spots, btw

I'm literally stoked about this discovery! The Grotte à Hominidés fossils are like, super old - 773,000 years old! It's crazy to think that these ancient humans were already evolving towards our own species. I mean, can you imagine being a hominin living in Morocco 800,000 years ago? The fact that we're finally getting a glimpse into their lives and how they might have looked is like, totally mind-blowing!

I think it's also really cool that these fossils are helping us understand our evolutionary history. I mean, we've always been curious about who we came from and when we diverged from other species... now we're getting answers! The more we learn about our ancient ancestors, the more we can appreciate how far we've come (or should I say, how much we still have to evolve?)?
