The Leakey family—archaeologist Louis, paleontologist Mary, and son Philip—examine a campsite of a prehistoric manlike creature in Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania, after discovering its fossils in 1960. Louis later went on to found The Leakey Foundation, which continues the work of studying human prehistory.
