=== ''H. rhodesiensis'', and the Gawis cranium ===
* ''H. rhodesiensis'', estimated to be 300,000–125,000 years old. Most current researchers place Rhodesian Man within the group of ''Homo heidelbergensis'', though other designations such as archaic ''Homo sapiens'' and ''Homo sapiens rhodesiensis'' have been proposed.
* In February 2006 a fossil, the [[Gawis cranium]], was found which might possibly be a species intermediate between ''H.&nbsp;erectus'' and ''H.&nbsp;sapiens'' or one of many evolutionary dead ends. The skull from Gawis, Ethiopia, is believed to be 500,000–250,000 years old. Only summary details are known, and the finders have not yet released a peer-reviewed study. Gawis man's facial features suggest that it is either an intermediate species or an example of a "Bodo man" female.<ref>{{cite press release |last1=Semaw |first1=Sileshi |last2=Toth |first2=Nicholas |last3=Schick |first3=Kathy |last4=Simpson |first4=Scott |last5=Quade |first5=Jay |last6=Rogers |first6=Michael J. |date=March 27, 2006 |title=Scientists discover hominid cranium in Ethiopia |url= http://newsinfo.iu.edu/news/page/normal/3142.html |location=Bloomington |publisher=[[Indiana University]] |access-date=November 26, 2006 |display-authors=3 |archive-date=November 15, 2006 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20061115161617/http://newsinfo.iu.edu/news/page/normal/3142.html |url-status=live}}</ref>
