Archaeological sites in Kenya

Kenya is rich in archaeological sites that reveal its ancient history and human origins. Notably, the Turkana Boy, a nearly 2-million-year-old Homo erectus skeleton, was discovered at Lake Turkana, providing insights into early human evolution. The Koobi Fora and Lomekwi sites contain tools and artifacts from early hominins. The Maasai Mara and Cheptuden areas have archaeological evidence of past human activities. These sites help scientists understand human development, migration, and adaptation over millions of years. Kenya’s archaeology continues to uncover new findings, making it a vital location for studying human history.
