Appropriate topics include (but are not limited to) finds of new fossils early human ancestors, or any analysis of earlier finds. Inappropriate topics include dinosaurs, Big Foot sightings, Noah's Ark, etc. Please note that the current trend is for researchers to use 'hominid" to refer to African apes (this usage would include chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas as well as humans), and "hominin" to refer to human ancestors (those that follow the divergence of the human and chimpanzee lines). Some older articles may use "hominid" to refer to the fossil bipedal forms. What's important is that the articles focus on fossil human ancestors, not whether the article uses hominin" or "hominid". Assignment: Find and read 5 separate articles on the appropriate topics for each section.Articles may come from newspapers, magazines (National Geographic, Scientific American, Time, etc.), websites, or other sources. Do NOT use Wikipedia as a source for academic assignments. A short (one-two paragraph, 10-12 sentence, roughly 250 word) synopsis of each article should follow the reference. You should NOT use direct quotes. Do not write all 5 summaries, and then put all 5 references together on a separate page. It should be organized this way: reference 1, summary 1, reference 2, summary 2, etc..
