The exact name, Homo rudolfensis was coined in 1986. However, the fossils were found in 1972, and it the name Pithecanthropus rudolfensis was proposed in 1978.
Estimates suggest that Homo rudolfensis would have weighed around 100-120 pounds based on their estimated body size and proportions.
Homo rudolfensis likely had a diet consisting of a variety of plant-based foods such as fruits, seeds, and tubers, as well as some meat from scavenged sources like small animals. Their diet was likely based on what was locally available in their environment.
homo habilis are the earliest people who wandered around looking for food.
Early Homo refers to the genus of hominins that evolved after Australopithecus and are characterized by larger brains, reduced dentition, and a more upright posture. Examples include Homo habilis, Homo rudolfensis, and Homo erectus. They are considered the ancestors of modern humans.
An alternate term for Homo erectus is "upright man" or "upright human."
