«We are quite sure that the juvenile - only placoderm assemblage is not the result of sorting of small material by water currents because there are
larger skeletal elements of other kinds of fish.

Representing at least 15 individuals with most
skeletal elements repeated multiple times, this is the
largest assemblage of a single species of hominins yet discovered in Africa.
In order to contextualise the australopithecine and early Homo stature estimates and range of variability obtained from the footprints within a broader picture (Figure 12), and to compare them with a
larger sample, we extended our analysis to consistent data based on
skeletal elements, namely femurs (see Materials and methods for details).
Thus, the preservation of primary soft tissues and biomolecules is not limited to
large - sized bones buried in fluvial sandstone environments, but also occurs in relatively small - sized
skeletal elements deposited in marine sediments.
