eLucy can help you learn more about the world’s most famous fossil, Lucy, a
member of the species Australopithecus afarensis, who lived 3.2 million years
ago. Discovered in 1974 in Ethiopia, Lucy is unique because over 40% of her
skeleton was recovered, making her one of the most complete australopithecine
fossils ever found. This website provides activities and lessons that will help
you to learn about Lucy’s place in human evolution. Some activities are online,
but others can be completed offline. After studying Lucy, you can investigate
other aspects of human evolution at eFossils.org, or learn more about the
skeleton at eSkeletons.org.
