I want to know the answer to the following question:
What is the importance pertaining to the age of the hominid that was found in Eritrea?
All the background I'm provided with is that "It is believed that the section of the Danakil Depression in Eritrea was also a major player in terms of human evolution, and may contain other traces of evolution from Homo erectus hominids to anatomically modern humans.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
