Extended Data Fig. 6: General comparison of ATE7-1 with Early Pleistocene specimens from Africa and Eurasia in frontal view.

Frontal view of the superimposition of the virtual reconstruction of ATE7-1 with a) D2282, b) KNM-ER-3733, c) ATD6-58, d) ATD6-69, e) D4500 and f) Sangiran 17 (mirror reconstruction). The comparative fossils are in ghost texture while ATE7-1 is shown in opaque texture. The comparison highlights the larger facial width of the Early Pleistocene fossils from Africa and Asia due to the anterior projection of their zygomatic bone in comparison to the narrower midface of ATE7-1. Note that the comparison with d) may be influenced by the immature state of this individual.
