Who was the first ancestor Lucy?

Lucy was discovered in 1974 near the village Hadar in the Awash Valley of the Afar Triangle in Ethiopia by paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson but she is really put together from several parts. As far as being the first ancestor, there have been others like Ardi, short for Ardipithecus ramidus, who may be older but again it depends on what you mean by human. When did the real humans begin is a question that hasn't been answered just yet.
