Orrorinn.

Brit.

/ɔːˈrɔːrɪn/, U.S.

/ɔˈrɔrɪn/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Orrorin.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Orrorin, genus name (B. Senut et al. 2001: see quot. 2001), according to Senut < a Kalenjin (Tugen) word meaning ‘original man’ (compare quot. 2001), but this has not been traced. Perhaps compare Kalenjin (Tugen) arrorin speaker of the Arror variety of Tugen, area where this is spoken, also person who gives directions.

Palaeontology.

An extinct hominid, Orrorin tugenensis, known from late Miocene fossil remains found in the Tugen Hills of Kenya, and dated to between 6.2 and 5.6 million years ago. Also: the genus Orrorin itself.The status of Orrorin is controversial; some believe it to have been bipedal and the earliest hominin in the human line (cf. Ardipithecus n.).
