Kenya: Major Fossil Discovery

allAfrica.com: "Researchers have made a major fossil discovery in Kenya which, they say, could be the last common ancestor of humans and African apes. The species named Nakalipithecus nakayamai by a Kenyan and Japanese team could be the missing link in the evolution theory of man, gorillas and chimpanzees, according to Dr Fredrick Manthi, a senior research scientist at the National Museums of Kenya."
