researchers have identified new species of human relative which they have  named homo bodeonsis. The  scientist  behind the discovery believe  the  species is direct is direct ancestor person who was in someone's family in the past  of modem humans and lived in Africa  about 500, 000 year  ago. the discovery  was not based  on fossils  that  were recently  found but on the reexamination of ones found long ago. Homo bodoensis  was  recognized in a new study  if fossils remains form hominid  human related  species. These  induced a skull found in Bodo  dr ar Ethiopia  in 1976  homo bodensis  its name from that location.  The  new  species lived the middle Pleistocene  pride of prehistory  some researchers called this period the  muddle in the milder  because of confusion abut how the modem human species homo sapinens evolved changed very slowly over time   When  modem humans  appears in farce  about 300,000 year ago several other hominids that now  extinct shared their  world did you  know one of the earliest know humans is named  homo habills  or  handy  man because  he made  the first stone tools. most famous  were neanderthals cousins of Homo sapiens  that mostly lived in Europe  and Asia  and  became extinct about 40,000 year ago.discoveries of hominid  remains from an earlier period  the middle Pleistocene suggest that Been unable a determine which of these gave rise to  modem humans and produced their cousins The  team led by Mirjana Roksandic  from  the university of Winnipeg  in Canada  and prerag radocic from the university  of Belgrade in Serbia says the new species  answer some of these questions They believe. that features  of the  Bodo skull and other remains from the middle pleeistoceme  show that they  all  belong to single species homo bodensis Their  research  suggests  this new. species is  direct ancestor  of modem humans and descended  from an even  earlier hominid  called homo Erectus uprising human which lived more than a million years age expert say Bodo hominid stayed in Africa other  descendants of homo erects spread upright  human which lived more than million  years ago. express say Bodo hominids stayed in Africa  otther  descendants of homo Erectus  spread  out  to Europe  and Asia where  they eventually gave rise  to other homing species including  mepnerthals . from called book  the weed junior
