Skeletal remains

A man looks at the hyperrealistic artistic reconstruction of the human ancestors in the National Museum of Prague on February 4, 2025 in Prague, on the sidelines of a press conference held by the Czech Prime Minister and Ethiopia’s Tourism Minister (both unseen) about bone fragments of Lucy, a 3.18 million year-old human ancestor which rarely leave Ethiopia, will go on display from Aug. 25 in Prague, for the first time ever in Europe. The ancient remains of the Australopithecus afarensis were discovered in Ethiopia in 1974. The find was, at the time, the most complete ever found, and revolutionized the understanding of humanity’s ancestors.
