Fossil Ida, a Misssing Link

September 4th, 2009 admin Leave a comment Go to comments

Scientist has found a primate fossil from ancient time. This fossil calls Ida. This fossil is believed as missing link between our human race and animal kingdom evolution.

The 47m-year-old primate – named Ida – has been hailed as the fossil equivalent of a “Rosetta Stone” for understanding the critical early stages of primate evolution.

Ida will show us connection between human and animals like sheep, elephant, or cows. Above fossil picture will be in the textbooks for the next hundred years.

Ida was originally discovered by an amateur fossil hunter in the summer of 1983 at Messel pit, a world renowned fossil site near Darmstadt in Germany. He kept it under wraps for over 20 years before deciding to sell it via a German fossil dealer called Thomas Perner. It was Perner who approached Hurum two years ago.
