摘要：
New hominid teeth have been recovered from the archaeological sites of Kokiselei I and Naiyena Engol 1. These two sites are located in the west side of the Turkana Basin and belong to the Kaitio member of the Nachukui Formation. They are dated between 1.65-1.79 and 1.7-1.8 Myr respectively. The four teeth (left maxillary canine and first molar, right maxillary third molar and left mandibular third molar) discovered in Kokiselei I are attributed to Australopithecus boisei. The right mandibular first premolar found in Naiyena Engol I is referred to Homo sp. aff. ergaster. (C) 2003 Academie des sciences. Publie par Elsevier SAS. Tons droits reserves.
