Somewhere west of Munich, Madelaine Böhme and her colleagues dig for clues to the origins of humankind. What they discover is beyond anything they imagined, and the fossilized bones of Danuvius guggenmosi ignite a global media frenzy. This ancient ancestor defies our knowledge of human history-his nearly twelve-million-year-old bones were not located in Africa, the accepted birthplace of humanity, but in Europe, and his features suggest we evolved much differently than scientists once believed. In prose that reads like a gripping detective novel, Ancient Bones interweaves the story of the perspective-changing dig with the fascinating answer to a pressing question: How, exactly, did we become human?
