Evidence at Olorgesailie, Kenya, of Homo erectus involved in (ritual?)
slaughter of baboons. This site contained the remains of 90 giant
baboons from 400k - 700k years BP. Pat Shipman from Hopkins was one of
the discoverers. The baboons had had their heads smashed (I also seem
to remember that baboon skulls with evidence of smashing were found by
Dart at Taung site). Ref: Current Anthro, June, 1981
