Ardipithecus ramidus is an early hominin species that lived about 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia. Known from the famous partial skeleton “Ardi,” it had a small brain, long arms, and grasping feet, indicating a combination of tree-climbing and upright walking. Its anatomy suggests it lived in wooded environments rather than open savannas, challenging earlier ideas about human evolution. Ardipithecus ramidus provides key insights into the early stages of bipedalism and the evolutionary split between humans and other great apes.
