Multiple Choice

In 2003, scientists announced the 1997 discovery in an Ethiopian valley of three anatomically modern skulls-two adults and a child. Known collectively as the Herto skulls, the researchers dated them to 154,000-160,000 B.P. All of the following clues suggested that these skulls in fact were of anatomically modern humans, EXCEPT

• A) their long and broad midfaces.
• B) their tall and narrow sagittal crests.
• C) their high cranial vaults, falling within modern dimensions.
• D) their tall and narrow nasal bones.
• E) evidence of the skulls' cutting and handling, suggesting they had been detached from their bodies and used-perhaps ritually-after death.
