Superior cervical vertebrae of a Miocene hominoid and a Plio-Pleistocene hominid from southern Africa [PDF]
, 2000 The Miocene hominoid and Plio-Pleistocene hominid vertebral record is poor. In 1994, a complete atlas of a hominoid was found in breccia at Berg Aukas in Namibia. Its age was estimated to be middle Miocene (13 myr) on the basis of microfauna.
