Ancient footprints were discovered in Tanzania
Cynthia Liutkus-Pierce, a researcher at the University of Appalachian State (USA), was surprised to see such footprints. " I really want to discover human origins to know: Where do we come from and who are we? This is a trace that helps us see history ."
These ancient footprints are preserved by the ash of the volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai called "the mountain of god" by the Maasai people . According to the scientists, ash and dust caused by a 2.332m high volcano erupted into the Engare Sero mud before being dried up like a printing mold and preserving ancient footprints to this day. As the Engare Sero flows through, the surface flattens the surface and reveals these footprints.
