Louis Leakey, discoverer of many fossil human ancestors and tireless promoter of the study of human origins, was born #OnThisDay in 1903. Pictured here excavating in Oldupai Gorge. A great episode from @OriginsPodcast, Louis telling his life story: https://t.co/UuAtQieAuo

@Gregory443000 This individual is thought to have died of gum disease/ dental infections. The round hole is likely from an abscess or infection. We are doing an “ask a scientist” episode soon and I could ask someone who has studied this skull if you want.
