| Research Abstract |
This project aimed to analyze internal structure of fossil teeth and bones of Miocene hominoids and early hominids in Ethiopia and Kenya, those which are difficult to loan abroad for study, by means of portable high resolution micro-CT equipment. We scanned fossils of Ardipithecus spp., Chororapithecus in Ethiopia, and Homo habilis and Nakalipithecus in Kenya. The outcome was published in papers of gnatic/dental internal structure of these hominids/hominoids as well as virtual reconstruction of an Ar. ramidus skeleton
