KNM ER 1805
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
KNM ER 1805 is several pieces of a fossilized skull of the species Homo habilis. It was discovered in Koobi Fora, Kenya.
It is estimated to be 1.74 million years old.
Due to its incompleteness it has been the subject of debate as to its classification. It was originally classified as Homo erectus but due to the projection of the face and the shape of the cranium, it is now generally classified as H. habilis.
