Hi! Your local anthropology major here! I LOVE human ancestors, especially hominins (modern humans, extinct human species, and all our immediate ancestors) and I think it would be so rad to have some of those (Authralopithecines and Homos, specifically) as craftable decor for January. Here are some of my ideas:


Perhaps the most famous hominin fossil: Lucy or Australopithecus afarensis. Ugh, what a queen!




--

Or how about A. boisei? Cheekbones for DAYS!


--

Maybe you enjoy the Homos more?? How about the *classic* Homo erectus??


--

And the OG toolmaker themself: H. habilus!!



But maybe you're not super into the living versions of these bois, how does some fossil skulls sound??

A recently found friend, and one of my personal favorites: A. sediba!



A pal that everyone's familiar with: H. neanderthal!



Thanks for reading and I'd love to hear your suggestions and criticisms!
