I do not have nothing better to offer
Richard Leakey:
“What we have discovered (Homo rudolfensis KNM-ER-1470 and the like) just ruins everything that has been taught about human evolution, and instead… I do not have nothing better to offer”.
This phrase is cited in many places, but it is not completely clear. We propose that it be verified.
