[edit] What species are Boskop finds now?

We need to know how the Boskop finds have been reclassified. Someone on a chat forum says that Eiseley totally exaggerated the whole thing, which is probably why this page was created. Smilo Don 16:32, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

From some reddit comments (at http://reddit.com/info/6dds8/comments/), "In the 1950s it was shown that the Boskop skulls were barely different from those of modern peoples such as the San and Hottentot. What's more, the Boskop brain was actually smaller than the high end of modern humans, which is about 2000 cc." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.163.150.8 (talk) 14:42, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
