New Fossils Of Australopithecus Sediba Reveal A Nearly Complete Lower The new fossils are mainly bones from the lower back, and they fit together with the previously discovered mh2 fossils, providing a nearly complete lower spine. analysis of the fossils suggested that mh2 would have had an upright posture and comfortably walked on two legs, and the curvature of their lower back was similar to modern females. Here, williams et al. report the discovery of new a. sediba fossils from malapa. the new fossils are mainly bones from the lower back, and they fit together with the previously discovered mh2 fossils, providing a nearly complete lower spine. analysis of the fossils suggested that mh2 would have had an upright posture and comfortably walked on.
New Fossils Of Australopithecus Sediba Reveal A Nearly 52 Off Newly recovered lumbar vertebrae belonging to malapa hominin 2, an adult female of the fossil hominin species australopithecus sediba, demonstrate that this individual was adapted to upright posture and bipedal locomotion but also had adaptations for climbing in trees. 1 new fossils of australopithecus sediba reveal a nearly complete lower back 2 scott a. williams 1,2 ,3*, thomas c. prang 4, marc r. meyer 5, thierra k. nalley 6, renier van d er 3 merwe 3, christopher yelverton 7, daniel garcía martínez 3,8 ,9, gabrielle a. russo 10, kelly r. Newly discovered lumbar vertebrae contribute to a near complete lower back of malapa hominin 2 (mh2), offering additional insights into posture and locomotion in australopithecus sediba. we show. 3d gm analyses show that mh2’s nearly complete middle lumbar vertebra is human like in shape but bears large, cranially directed transverse processes, implying powerful trunk musculature, and interpret this combination of features to indicate that a. sediba used its lower back in both human like bipedalism and ape like arboreal positional behaviors.

A. sediba (mh2), together with previously known vertebrae, form a nearly complete lumbar column ( figure 3 , figure 3—figure supplement 1 ) and allows us to test hypotheses based on more limited.
