Hominid Species and Tools Kit
Hominid Species and Tools Kit
About Kit :
- This kit features skulls from the major groups of hominin species as well as a modern chimpanzee, showing major changes that have occurred in the 7 million years since humans and chimps shared a common ancestor. It also features tools associated with each hominin species.
- These skulls are precisely modeled to replicate either respected reproductions or actual fossil finds, and can be used to examine trends in hominin evolution, including brain size, jaw size, and tool use. Designed for the classroom, the skulls are 1:3 scale and come with a letter indicator on the inside of each skull for teacher reference.
- Additionally, the jaws are attached to the top of the skull so you don't have to worry about mismatching or losing them. Each of the tools are offered at 1:2 scale for ease of storage.
- Now includes an optional 1:1 Homo sapien skull in the individual parts as well as a detached 1:1 Homo sapien cranium and jaw!
