Interesting image, vividly rendered. It's also interesting to read about what animal may have left this footprint.
Nice work.

Not at all Dear Mitra because I just got off from work being employed by the Federal Government, so please see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_erectus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australopithecus
Furthermore, I am quite well educated since 1966 in Anthropology with the four breakdowns being:
Physical Anthropology Cultural Anthropology Archeology and Linguistics
Ask your Brother and not that I have ever drank with him because I do not even know who he is or if he knows more than me ...

Please listen ...
On site in Kenya Kamoya Kimeu found a Hominid fossil. Dr Louis Leakey discovered what was the oldest of the species found at that time dating to 160,000 years old and was the first contemporaneous with Homo Neanderthalensis.
During the Omo expedition of 1967 Dr. Leakey visited Nairobi and on the return flight the pilot flew over Lake Rudolph (now Lake Turkana) to avoid a thunderstorm. The map led Dr. Leaky to expect volcanic rock below him but he saw sediments. Visiting the region he saw tools and fossils everywhere. In his mind he was already formulating a new enterprise.
In 1968 Dr. Louis Leakey attended a meeting of the Research and Exploration Committee of the National Geographic Society to ask for money for Omo. Catching Louis by surprise the committee was asked to divert the $25,000 intended for Omo to new excavations to be conducted under his leadership at Koobi Fora and then Austrolapithicus was discovered at Oldavai Gorge.

I disagree with your Brother and stand by my original visual analysis especially that I used to work with Dr. S.B. Leaky in Oldawai Gorge in Tanzania when him and I first discovered Homo Erectus and Austrolapithicus ...

Hi Doug. Thank you so much for identifying the footprint and for the literature on it. I didn't know what it was and I was waiting for my younger brother to get here from his Elk hunting in Colorado to identify it for me. Thank you my dear friend for doing so. I wish you a wonderful weekend. All the best, Mitra

Cheirotherium was the name given to a hand-like imprint believed in 1835 to be a mammal. Similar footprints have long been found in Cheshire and much work was done by J. Lomas and H. C. Beasley upon them. The genus is now known to occur in America as well as in Europe and 34 species have been described. The history of discovery, the validity of species, and the classification are discussed here. The animal that made the prints is identified as a pseudosuchian reptile.
