91% Informative
Fossils of Paranthropus robustus are found in abundance at Swartkrans Cave , situated about halfway between Johannesburg and Pretoria , South Africa .
The fossil not only demonstrates that the species was, like modern humans, a habitual upright walker, but also confirms it was also extremely small.
It is estimated that this individual was only about a meter tall and 27 kg when it died.
