Lucy’s skeleton, as reconstructed in dental plaster by paleanthropoligists Owen Lovejoy and his students at Kent State University. Starting with casts of the original fossils, shown here in dark browns. Lovejoy mirror-imaged the bones and filled in missing parts through inferences drawn from the remains of other afarensis individuals. The posture illustrated here shows how interrelated adaptations in Lucy’s pelvis, femur, knee, and foot permitted a fully bipedal gait. ~ DAVID BRILL
