Replica Homo rhodesiensis Skull (Broken HillŸ Woodward, 1921)
Anthropological Skull Model - Broken Hill or Kabwe
3B Scientific's range of anthropological skulls
has been newly reissued in its entirety. The results are plain to see. The Broken Hill or Kabwe skull
model is the finest casting produced from scientifically made copies of specimens featured in the
collection at the Institute of Anthropology and Human Genetics for Biologists at the
Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe University, Frankfurt/Main, Germany. This means that all the details in each
anthropological skull can be reproduced
absolutely accurately. This unique Broken Hill or Kabwe replica is supplemented by having it displayed
on a pedestal that contains a relief map of the geographical area where the specimen was found.
The Broken Hill human skull model is an accurate casting of a reconstruction from an original
specimen that was discovered in a iron ore working at Broken Hill, in north west Rhodesia (modern-day
Kabwe in Zambia). It is an example of the early human, of the species Homo sapiens
rhodesiensis or a Homo erectus rhodesiensis, the skull having
features that point to both these classifications. For this reason, there is debate in the estimates of
the early human specimen's age, based on differing scientific assumptions.
An early example of
an ancient
Homo sapiens (as classified by Henke
and Rothe 1994) or a Homo erectus rhodesiensis.
Discovered at: a cave in an ore working at Broken Hill, modern-day Kabwe in Zambia
Discovery: 1921 Age: probably 150,000 to 300,000 years old. Previous estimates were of 40,000 to
60,000 years.
This Broken Hill skull replica is a great tool for teaching and learning the
anatomy of early human species.
