The Ardipithecus Genus, which includes Ardipithecus ramidus and the older Ardipithecus kadabba, defines Forest-Adapted Bipeds in the hominin lineage, representing a crucial transitional stage immediately following the initial divergence from the last common ancestor shared with chimpanzees. The profound significance of Ardipithecus ramidus rests on its unique morphology, which demonstrates a mosaic combination of numerous ancestral primitive traits related to arboreality alongside the newly acquired, definitive derived trait of habitual bipedalism
Ardi’s fossils were found alongside faunal remains indicating she lived in a wooded environment. This contradicts the open savanna theory for the origin of bipedalism, which states that humans learned to walk upright as climates became drier and environments became more open and grassy. the Ardi skeleton provides fundamental insights, demonstrating that bipedalism, the defining Synapomorphy of the Tribe Hominini, originated in a forest setting in a species that retained strong climbing abilities, rather than arising only once hominins had fully transitioned to open, Terrestrial environments
