3. One of the oldest fossi ls found
to date is that of the Turkana Boy,
which is about 1.6 mi l l ion years old.
When the fossi l was closely examined
it was discovered that it belonged to a
human about 12 years old, and that he
would have been 1.80 m (5’90”) tal l if he
had reached adulthood. This fossi l alone,
w i t h i t s e x a c t r e s emb l an c e t o human

de s t r oy t he be l i e f t ha t human s

ho r s e , t he dog and t he ape a r e f ou r -
l egged , and an ima l s s u c h a s s nak e s ,
crocodi les and l izards are repti les.
The theor y of evo l ut i on c l a ims that ,
mi l l i ons of year s ago , four - l egged apes
changed the i r wal k ing sty l e into a bent
position. The apes continued to walk bent

result , the human form was establ ished.
These claims made by the theory of
e v o l u t i on a r e no t ba s ed on any
s c i ent i f i c ev i dence but ar e rathe r
based on total imagination. Studies
made by sc i ent i sts in recent years
have proven that thi s c laim of the

The Turkana Boy skeleton
proves that the children
were just like us even 1.6
million years ago.
