Multiple fossil finds from the Late Miocene and Pliocene of East Africa document varied hominin occurrences, including teeth, jaws, and skeletal remains. Dental evidence from middle Awash and other localities informs patterns of dental evolution and dietary adaptation. Discoveries of Ardipithecus ramidus and Australopithecus specimens illuminate morphological diversity and early hominin paleobiology. Juvenile remains from Dikika provide developmental and geological context. Comparative analyses examine differences in resource use between early Homo and Paranthropus and evaluate the reality and interpretation of hominin taxic diversity during the Pliocene. Site-specific studies (Asa Issie, Aramis, Maka) anchor biogeographic and evolutionary inferences.
