Description

The Institute of Human Origins’ cast collection of fossil human ancestors is one of the largest of its kind in North America. It includes the only complete cast collection of Australopithecus afarensis (the species to which the famous fossil “Lucy” belongs) in the world. Researchers and students from ASU and other institutions study the collection as part of scientific research on the fascinating evolutionary history of humans and our closest relatives.
