Summary

Description
English: Foot bones of Homo naledi: From left to right:
  • Foot 1. Adult right
  • Foot 2. Immature left
  • Foot 3. Adult left
  • Foot 4. Adult left
  • Foot 5. Immature right.

Adult foot 3 is based on morphological and size congruity between the individual elements. However, they were collected in a widely dispersed region and therefore this foot is not as certain on taphonomic grounds.

Immature foot 5 is based on morphological and size congruity between the elements. Specimens U.W. 101-467, -1623, and -1662 were collected together and are almost certainly associated. The association of these tarsals with the metatarsals and phalanges is questionable.
