From the Chengjiang fossil group dating back half a billion years to the Yuanmou Man from more than a million years ago, Yunnan bore witness to the miraculous “Cambrian Explosion”.
Yunnan has also observed pivotal stages in human evolution, from the Lufeng Ape 12 to 6 million years ago, to the upright Yuanmou Man around 1.7 million years ago and to the Mengzi Man of just 14,000 years ago. Yunnan is a crucial region for unraveling the mysteries of evolution and the origins of humanity.
