List of human evolution fossils
The following tables give an overview of notable finds of hominin fossils and remains relating to human evolution , beginning with the formation of the tribe Hominini (the divergence of the human and chimpanzee lineages ) in the late Miocene , roughly 7 to 8 million years ago.
As there are thousands of fossils, mostly fragmentary, often consisting of single bones or isolated teeth with complete skulls and skeletons rare, this overview is not complete, but shows some of the most important findings. The fossils are arranged by approximate age as determined by radiometric dating and/or incremental dating and the species name represents current consensus; if there is no clear scientific consensus the other possible classifications are indicated.
The early fossils shown are not considered ancestors to Homo sapiens but are closely related to ancestors and are therefore important to the study of the lineage. After 1.5 million years ago (extinction of Paranthropus ), all fossils shown are human (genus Homo ). After 11,500 years ago (11.5 ka, beginning of the Holocene ), all fossils shown are Homo sapiens (anatomically modern humans ), illustrating recent divergence in the formation of modern human sub-populations .
The chimpanzee–human divergence likely took place during around 10 to 7 million years ago.[ 1] The list of fossils begins with Graecopithecus , dated some 7.2 million years ago, which may or may not still be ancestral to both the human and the chimpanzee lineage. For the earlier history of the human lineage, see Timeline of human evolution#Hominidae , Hominidae#Phylogeny .

"The Gurumaha Tuff is radiometrically dated to 2.842± 0.007 Ma , a date that is consistent with
the normal magnetic polarity of the Gurumaha section, presumably the Gauss Chron. An upper bounding age for LD 350-1 is provided by an adjacent, downfaulted younger block that contains the 2.665± 0.016 Ma
Lee Adoyta Tuff. [...] the age of LD 350-1 can be further constrained by stratigraphic scaling. [...] Based on the current chronostratigraphic framework for Ledi-Geraru, we consider the age of LD 350-1 to be 2.80–2.75 Ma".

^ Wadjak 1 and Wadjak 2 are fossil human skulls discovered near Wajak, a town in Malang Regency , East Java , Indonesia in 1888/90.
Dubbed "Wajak Man", and formerly classified as a separate species (Homo wadjakensis ), the skulls are now recognized as early anatomically modern human. They were dated to the Holocene, 12 to 5 ka, in the 1990s, but this has been revised in a 2013 study which claimed a far earlier date, "a minimum age of between 37.4 and 28.5 ka".
