The Human Footprint increased by 9% from 1993 to 2009, at least partly attributable to a human population increase of 23% and a global economy increase of 153% during the same period. [3] Though population and economic growth far exceed the growth of the Human Footprint, the areas that saw increased human influence were those with the highest ...

C) Contour map of Laetoli footprint (G1-37) and side view of Laetoli footprint (G1-37). Note the difference in heel and toe depths between modern humans walking with extended and BKBH gaits.
The numerous human footprints still preserved in some rock art caves in southern France were the starting point of the project. These tracks date back to the last Ice Age and originated around 17,000 years ago. In contrast to the rock art, they have so far only been sparsely studied and with purely morphometric, "surveying" approaches.

The seven footprints, found amidst a clutter of hundreds of prehistoric animal prints, are estimated to be 115,000 years old. Many fossil and artifact windfalls have come from situations like this ...
Eve's footprint is the popular name for a set of fossilised footprints discovered on the shore of Langebaan Lagoon, South Africa in 1995. They are thought to be those of a female human and have been dated to approximately 117,000 years ago. This makes them the oldest known footprints of an anatomically modern human.
Footprint of a giant ground sloth found in White Sands National Park. The prints provide several insights into the lives of the peoples who made them. First, one set of prints appears to show human hunters tracking a giant sloth. Variations in the tracks left by the sloth show that it stood on its hind legs and spun around, possibly showing ...
Solidified footprints dated to about 350 ka and associated with H. heidelbergensis were found in southern Italy in 2003. [49] H. sapiens lost the brow ridges from their hominid ancestors as well as the snout completely, though their noses evolve to be protruding (possibly from the time of H. erectus). By 200 ka, humans had stopped their brain ...
