The Olduvai Gorge (Paleoanthropological Site)

The Olduvai Gorge is a significant paleoanthropological site located in Tanzania, famous for its rich deposits of early human and hominin fossils. Dating back nearly 2 million years, it has provided crucial evidence about the evolution of our ancestors. Researchers have discovered tools and remains of early species, such as Homo habilis and Homo erectus, which help us understand human development, diet, and migration. The site has played a vital role in shaping our knowledge of human evolution and continues to be a key area for studying the origins of our species.
