“Early Homo”

1. Homo rudolfensis . . .

(e.g., KNM ER 1470)

2. Homo habilis . . .

Some people think there are two species:

EarlyEarly Homo Homo

“We agree that more than one species is probably represented, but for simplicity suggest referring to all the [Plio-pleistocene human] specimens as ‘early Homo.’”

“The species names Homo habilis and Homo rudolfensis are the ones most commonly used for designating two different species of early Homo.”
