The Missing Link

Scientists have discovered a direct ancestor to today's Democrat subspecies.

The new skull also suggests the species had a much smaller brain than was previously estimated based on the 1996 skull.

“It’s a little surprising to find out that the brain volume on this thing indicates that maybe the New and Old World monkeys, their common ancestor had a prosimian-, or lower-primate-like brain like Aegyptopithecus does,” Simons said.
