An international team of researchers has authored a study claiming that they may have discovered what is possibly the oldest human fossil in existence in China.
Researchers from the National Center for Research on Human Evolution (CENIEH) in Spain, as part of a team of Chinese, Spanish, and French scientists, have just published the study on what is possibly the oldest known human fossil in the country.
The researchers used X-ray micro-computed tomography techniques, geometric morphometry, and classical morphology to investigate the remains of the upper jaw and five skull teeth from the Chinese site of Gongwangling.
