The researchers examining this fossil state that Homo Bodoensis is a direct ancestor of humans who settled in Africa before being replaced by Homo sapiens. This period of human species development is known as the "confusion in the middle," due to the numerous misunderstandings among paleontologists.
Dr. Mirjana Roksandic from the University of Winnipeg, Canada, analyzes fossils from Africa and Eurasia to identify the appropriate category for this newly discovered ancestral species.
Before this research was conducted, the Homo Bodoensis fossil was often associated with several other species, such as Homo Heidelbergensis or Homo Rhodesiensis. Both types of fossils have had ambiguous definitions since the beginning.
Most of the ancient humans from Europe are still classified as Neanderthals. The name "Bodoensis" comes from the skull found in Bodo D'ar, Ethiopia.
Giving a new species name is a big deal because the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature only allows name changes with strict rules. Researchers are confident that the name Bodoensis will be used for a long time.

Christopher Bae, an anthropology professor, is involved in this research and states that the purpose of this new naming is clearly to help solve questions related to crucial periods in human evolution.
Neanderthals and ancient humans may have used boats to travel from one island to another in the Greek region about 200,000 years ago.
With archaeological findings that have changed perspectives, researchers believe that Neanderthals and primitive humans settled on the island of Naxos, Greece, approximately 200,000 years ago. This surpasses the previous established estimates.
A team of archaeologists from the United States, Canada, and Greece announced the discovery of stone tools on the island of Naxos believed to be at least 200,000 years old. The research team, led by Tristan Carter from McMaster University, stated that Naxos is an island in the Cycladic Islands of Greece, located in the middle of the Aegean Sea and believed to have been a place where both Neanderthals and primitive humans reached and settled for a certain period.
