Description
Using both fossil records and DNA evidence, this updated permanent exhibit traces the connections between modern man and our earliest ancestors (and a few distant relations) and features rare hominid fossils and artifacts, engaging video segments and realistic dioramas. There’s also a hands-on classroom where children can literally get a grip on our ancient progenitors.When
