Anthropologists manage to extract information from the most insignificant objects found in ancient sites. One tooth or one phalanx of a finger can help to determine the species and gender of hominids; DNA, extracted from the soil, can show which humans or pre-humans inhabited this particular site at different time periods; a tiny piece of tartar can clear up the food preferences of its owner and whether the food was processed on fire. The article considers the seven most famous finds of hominid footprints in volcanic ash.
