                 last. Now human evolution looks like a bush. We have a menagerie of fossil
                 hominids... How they are related to each other and which, if any of them, are
                 human forebears is still debated. 216

                 The comments of Henry Gee, the senior editor of Nature and a leading
             paleoanthropologist, about the newly discovered ape fossil are very
             noteworthy. In his article published in The Guardian, Gee refers to the
             debate about the fossil and writes:

                 Whatever the outcome, the skull shows, once and for all, that the old idea of
                 a 'missing link' is bunk... It should now be quite plain that the very idea of
                 the missing link, always shaky, is now completely untenable. 217



                 The Secret History of Homo sapiens
                 The most interesting and significant fact that nullifies the very basis
             of the imaginary family tree of evolutionary theory is the unexpectedly
             ancient history of modern man. Paleoanthropological findings reveal that
             Homo sapiens people who looked exactly like us were living as long as 1
             million years ago.
                 It was Louis Leakey, the famous evolutionary paleoanthropologist,
             who discovered the first findings on this subject. In 1932, in the Kanjera
             region around Lake Victoria in Kenya, Leakey found several fossils that
             belonged to the Middle Pleistocene and that were no different from

                                                Spain, showing that people with the
                                                same facial structure as present-day
                                                people were living 800,000 years ago.
