ramapithecus การใช้

• This find was named " Ramapithecus ".
• But later fossil finds indicated that " Ramapithecus " was more closely related to the orangutan.
• In their seminal 1967 paper in " Ramapithecus ", showed the younger estimates to be correct and validated the albumin method.
• It is also possible that fossils assigned to " Ramapithecus " belonged to the female form of " Sivapithecus ".
• More recently, teeth and a skull of Ramapithecus, a Miocene period primate related to the orangutan, have been found in Lufeng.
• Meanwhile, more complete specimens of " Ramapithecus " were found in 1975 and 1976, which showed that it was less human-like than had been thought.
• The last support for the out of Asia theory was due to the finds of fossils such as the " Dryopithecus " and " Ramapithecus " in Eurasia up until the early 1980s.
• In the 1970s, Krantz studied the fossil remains of " Ramapithecus ", an extinct genus of primates then thought by many anthropologists to be ancestral to humans, although Krantz helped prove this notion false.
• Some early discoveries were given the separate names " Ramapithecus " ( Rama's Ape ) and " Bramapithecus " ( Brahma's Ape ), and were thought to be possible ancestors of humans.
• Von Koenigswald studied the relationships between African, Asian and European hominoid fossils attributed to " Ramapithecus " or its close allies such as " Graecopithecus " of Greece and " Kenyapithecus " of Fort Ternan, Kenya.
• Siwalik specimens once assigned to the genus " Ramapithecus " are now considered by most researchers to belong to one or more species of " Sivapithecus " . " Ramapithecus " is no longer regarded as a likely ancestor of humans.
• Siwalik specimens once assigned to the genus " Ramapithecus " are now considered by most researchers to belong to one or more species of " Sivapithecus " . " Ramapithecus " is no longer regarded as a likely ancestor of humans.
• It was originally thought to represent two distinct species, " Sivapithecus yunnanensis ", thought to be an ancestor of " Pongo " ( orangutans ), and " Ramapithecus lufengensis ", thought to be an early human ancestor.
• Previously, the divergence between humans and other living hominoids was thought to have occurred 15 to 20 million years ago, and several species of that time period, such as " Ramapithecus ", were once thought to be hominins and possible ancestors of humans.
• The recognition in the 1980s that " " Ramapithecus " " fossils were females of " Sivapithecus " led to the creation of the new genus and species " Lufengpithecus lufengensis " to accommodate the large collection of hominoid fossils recovered at Lufeng in the 1970s.
