A six-million-year-old fossilized cranium of a juvenile ape has been unearthed in Zhaotong, a rare find paleontologists hope may help unravel the mystery of human origins. The remains is only the second recovered cranium belonging to a juvenile ape inhabiting Eurasia in the Miocene that dates back to 23 to 5 million years ago, Ji Xueping, a researcher who led the study, told a news conference on Sept. 5, 2013.
