If this is old, just ignore it, but it's news to me. 1.8 million year old skulls, buried together, with different physical appearances, suggesting an intermingling or evolution only within a species, not a phyla.
We know homo erectus was the first explorer, spreading north ane west and east. Remains of Erectus have been found dating all the way into true modern humans in isolated islands. It makes perfect sense that individuals would not always be the same. As they moved on from their origions, the chances of different characteristis are even greater.
Finding full skulls is so rare that this is an extraordinary find no matter what else it yields.

the problem with the paleo record is that its less than 0.000000000000000001% complete, a new discovery = new theories and the death of old ones. its great getting clues or glimpses into early evolutionary chains, its like time travel...but its not very conclusive
