In 1994, she told an interviewer for Scientific American,For me it was the sheer instinctive joy of collecting, or indeed one could say treasure hunting: it seemed this whole area abounded in objects of beauty and great intrinsic interest that could be taken from the ground. She found a hominid skull from about 1.8 million years ago. She said, For some reason, that skull caught the imagination. But what it also did… it caught the imagination of the National Geographic Society, and as a result they funded us for years.One of her most important discoveries was the footprints of three hominids. They were from about 3.6 million years ago. They proved that very early hominids walked on two feet. She told an interviewer, It was not as exciting as some of the other discoveries, because we did not know what we had. Of course, when we realized what they (footprints) were, then it was really exciting. She talked about how hard it is to know the meanings of things she found. There is so much we do not know, and the more we do know, the more we realize that early interpretations were completely wrong. 020000Mary Leakey looked for hominid bones with her husband Louis Leakey.
