Australopithecus bahrelghazali - Towards exploring the past

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Scientific researchers have brought up evidence showing that the ancestor of human beings namely Australopithecus bahrelghazali used to feed upon grass plants rather than on fruits or leaves. Basically, the researchers have advanced that these species possessed tooth fossil samples which indicate that their diet was based on plants which contain heavy levels of 4 carbon atoms (which is found in grasses). In-depth research have demonstrated that the mysterious human ancestry which is a 3-million-year- old member of the human evolutionary family, had developed a particular taste for sedges (flowering plants and grasses). Moreover, many researchers have found that the Australopithecus bahrelghazali might have also consumed underground tubers, bulbs, stems and above-ground stems of sedges such as the papyrus. Researchers have revealed that these early homininis appear to have consumed more than even the baboons. According to scientists, the Australopithecines such as Australopithecus bahrelghazali, may have been able to eat foods which used to be available in both savanna and wooded settings!
