First Hominid by Juliet

In a recent anthropological expedition, scientist dug up quite remarkable fossil: a jaw bone. This find isn't just your average jaw, however, many researches believe this belongs to one of the first known hominids ever. The bone has been almost perfectly preserved, with most of the teeth, and even the molars intact. This is remarkable because it could actually mean that the first modern humanoids were not native to Africa, but Europe.

this is very significant because learning about the origins of mankind can help us advance our sciences. The technology being used to identify where this bone belongs in relation to the earlier hominids may also in fact be the technology used to cure deadly diseases! Who knows! OK, to be entirely honest guys I'm writing about science because i keep trying to find political stuff but it just bums be out. So this is more of a squint-your-eyes-and-look-closely kind of significance but my point still stands.
