Between 1.9 and 1.7 m.y.a., several different species of early hominids lived in the region where Olduvai Gorge is today. We think that they moved around in groups made up of a few males and females as well as children and older relations. Much of the time was probably spent collecting wild plant foods, berries, and underground stems or roots.

The location of several archaeological sites in the area suggests that these early hominids took advantage of many different environments that surrounded a salt lake in the high grasslands of East Africa. There were hills and ...
