Instructions
Lucy  was  a  single  hominid  skeleton  found  in  Ethiopia.  First,  she  was  a  bunch  of  broken  fragments  lying  in  Ethiopia.  She  was  found  by  Donald  Johansson  and  Tom  Gray,  who  headed  out  to  the  area  looking  for  rocks,  and  then  drove  back.    that  return  journey,  Johansson  spotted  a  forearm  bone,  identified  it  and  then  kept  looking,  where  the  two  found  a  huge  set  of  bones  that  would  eventually    40  per  cent  of  the  entire  skeleton.  The  discovery  was  so  important  because  it  entirely    our  understanding  of  the  process  of  evolution.  She  showed  that  people  had  been  wrong  to  think  that  we  became  intelligent  before  we  stood  up  Lucy  and  her  contemporaries  were  better  suited  for  walking    than  we  were,  but  appear  to  have  been  much  less    advanced.  That  was  important  because  it  changed  our  understanding  of  the  story  of  evolution,  implying  that  walking  was  one  of  the  most  important  things  in  moving  us  towards  our  current  state,  and  that  brainpower  might  not  have  been  the  most  important  thing.
