Re: oldest hominid 'skull First they have to be sure of the age. The geological strata of the Tugen hills was previously dated to before or around six million years of age, but the team wanted a more accurate date for the discovery. Their colleagues from the University of Shimane in Japan analysed the rock in which Orrorin was found. The results are conclusive. The fossils are between 5.8 and 6.1 million years old.
