Science News, August 12, 2006 by David Adams
Are the dates quoted in "Stones of Contention: Tiny Homo species tied to ancient tool tradition" (SN: 6/3/06, p. 341) correct? I didn't think Homo existed as a genus 840,000 years ago.
DAVID ADAMS, BOOTHWYN, PA.
Fossil finds indicate that the Homo genus originated roughly 2.4 million years ago.--B. BOWER
