Researchers have determined that 3.4-million-year-old foot bones discovered in Ethiopia belong to Australopithecus deyiremeda, a species that coexisted with Australopithecus afarensis. The find highlights dietary differences that likely allowed peaceful overlap between the two groups. This challenges linear views of human evolution.
