| Summary: | Dr. Friedemann Schrenk searches for hominid fossils with famed paleoanthropologist Meave Leakey in East Africa. At excavation sites in northern Tanzania, Leakey discusses four-million-years-old findings and traces their relationship to previous findings - Lucy, an Australopithecus afarensis skull found in Ethiopia, Nutcraker Skull, an Australopithecus boisei found in East Africa and the skull of Homo habilis discovered in 1964. These and other skulls are analyzed within the context of the major evolutionary theories. |
