Zuckerman and Prof. Charles Oxnard, showed
that these creatures did not walk upright in
human manner. Having studied the bones of
these fossils for a period of 15 years by means
of grants from the British government, Lord
Zuckerman and his team of five specialists
reached the conclusion that australopithecines
were only an ordinary species of ape, and
were definitely not bipedal, although

magazine reported that apes of the species Australopithecus would have to
be removed from the human family tree. In this article, based on the
discovery of another Australopithecus fossil known simply as St W573, the
following sentences appear:
A new theory states that the genus Australopithecus is not the root of the
human race… The results arrived at by the only woman authorized to
examine St W573 are different from the normal theories regarding mankind's
ancestors: this destroys the hominid family tree. Large primates, considered
the ancestors of man, have been removed from the equation of this family
tree… Australopithecus and Homo (human) species do not appear on the same
branch. Man's direct ancestors are still waiting to be discovered. 189
